The Battles (episodes 7 to 10) consisted of two 2-hour episodes and two 1-hour episodes each on October 12, 13, 19 and 20, 2015. Season nine's advisors are Missy Elliott for Team Pharrell, John Fogerty for Team Adam, Brad Paisley for Team Blake, and Selena Gomez for Team Gwen. As like the previous battle rounds since season 3, each coach can exercise a use of two steals to save two losing artists from opposing coaches to put through to the Knockouts.

The Instant Save feature applies starting on the top 12 week until the semi-finals.
For the first time in the show's history, a "Coach Comeback" feature was introduced where each coach reinstated one previously eliminated artist from the Battles or Knockouts to perform in the Live Playoffs with the top 20 and will get a chance to move on to the live shows as part of the top 12.

The top 24 artists perform, with the two artists per each team advances via public vote, while the bottom four artists compete for the coaches' save in the results show. The Monday broadcast featured Teams Adam and Gwen, while the Tuesday broadcast featured Teams Pharrell and Blake.
