History Main / TeleportSpam

* In ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'', this is Glimmer's primary tactic in a fight.

** The Fourth Hokage was revealed in ''Kakashi Gaiden'' to have developed a specialized version of the [[FlashStep Body Flicker]] called the "Flying Thunder God Technique". Using it, he could instantly teleport himself to any spot he had marked with a seal. By spreading the seals across a battlefield, he could destroy entire squads of enemy shinobi in an instant. Due to the speed of his technique he was nicknamed the "Yellow Flash". This technique was so powerful that during the 3rd Ninja War, enemy combatants were [[TheDreaded ordered to ''flee-on-sight'' if he appeared on the battlefield]].

* Aoi Todo in ''Manga/JujutsuKaisen'' has a special technique named "Boogie Woogie" that amounts to this trope. With a clap of his hands, he can swap two objects that have Cursed Energy, including himself and an opponent, an ally and an opponent, or an ally and an item. It is a deceptively simple technique, but largely effective because of how disorienting it can be. It doesn't help Todo's enemy that he intentionally misleads about the circumstances of his ability, as just because he is clapping his hands doesn't mean he is going to swap places. [[spoiler:He doesn't even have to clap both of ''his'' hands either.]] The first real demonstration of this technique is when he and protagonist Yuji Itadori face off against a Cursed Spirit more powerful than either of them individually. However, the heroes keep an upper hand simply by spamming the hell out of Boogie Woogie, keeping the Cursed Spirit guessing and on the defensive.

* The ''ComicBook/XMen'' character ComicBook/{{Nightcrawler}} is fond of this tactic.

** For several early story arcs of ''ComicBook/{{Excalibur}}'', Nightcrawler was unable to use this tactic due to an injury he sustained prior to leaving the X-Men, which left him just as vulnerable to the strain of teleporting as a normal human would be. He could only handle about 1-2 teleports a day, and had to rely on his less famous powers (Franchise/SpiderMan-like wallcrawling and agility)... until a fight with Doctor Doom accidentally cured him. Then it was back to teleport-spamming.

* In ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'', Ash went to the Saffron gym and the Gym Leader Sabrina had an Abra that just kept doing this... [[IAmNotLeftHanded until it evolved seconds later.]] The (re-)rematch had Kadabra use a flurry of Teleports yet again to dodge Pikachu's Thundershocks.

* In ''Literature/PleaseDontTellMyParentsImASupervillain'' Penny Akk makes a set of teleportation bracelets, which she uses in battle to dodge around both attacks and enemies, often teleporting to one location then immediately to another as they try to keep her in sight.
