If this is about managing your Repel supply, what you can do is settle into a corner where there are trees to (let’s say) the north and west, then alternate pressing Up and Left repeatedly to bump into those walls. This lets you keep rolling for random encounters (limited to those that are high enough level to go through Repel, if any) but doesn’t consume any steps so the Repel won’t run out.

Overworld Sweet Scent is another way to get encounters without consuming steps, but the encounters you get that way will not respect your Repels.

The method of running into walls could also be used to churn through more encounters in Great Marsh without worrying about the step limit there, but those aren’t double battles.
