| Stealthy Teleportation | comment |
Teleportation is usually flashy, with bright lights and vacuum booms, but, sometimes, it's silent and invisible, only noticeable if the teleported object appears or disappears suddenly. It's rare in visual media, as the audience wouldn't know that anything happened beyond something disappearing, without other clues, and when written out, the teleportation is usually described as disappearing, with the implication that it was instantaneous. It's the kind of power that gives a massive edge in combat and theft, sneaking into enemies' blindspots, or avoiding them altogether. The Opposite Trope to Flashy Teleportation, for when teleportation is noticeable, even if you're not looking directly at it. Offscreen Teleportation is a Sub-Trope, in that what happens looks like this trope, but otherwise is not explained In-Universe as a teleportation power. Can be used to perform Stealth Hi/Bye where the character suddenly appears or disappears to start or end a conversation, respectively. |

Divinity: Original Sin II: Unlike most of the game's teleportation spells, which range from flashy to outright harmful, the "Cloak and Dagger" Scoundrel skill teleports without disrupting sneak mode or invisibility. The teleportation pyramids are inventory items that are activated to teleport without any sensory effect whatsoever and without breaking stealth or invisibility. However, they can only teleport to another pyramid. |

Pale: Avery is gifted a black rope from her mentor, Miss, that when wrapped around her wrist allows her to vanish and reappear anywhere nearby that no one is looking, effectively enforcing Offscreen Teleportation despite being in a written work. | |

Mostly played straight with Tyrone in Cloak & Dagger. His teleportation is silent and has no visual effect when he disappears, though his reappearance comes with black smoke. He's pretty effective at stealth. | |

Bravestarr: Teleportation is one of the myriad of powers that Eldritch Abomination Stampede granted to his second in command, Tex Hex. In keeping with the ghostly theme of Tex Hex, the power takes the form of Tex Hex either fading away or simply disappearing. Admittedly it'd be stealthier if he wasn't a Large Ham who insists on laughing maniacally or throwing out taunts and vows of revenge when he did so. | |

Naruto: The Fourth Hokage/Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is sometimes portrayed like this, especially in the manga, where Minato disappears from one panel only to show up in another one in a completely different position with little visual indication that it happened, in contrast to the usual Ninja Logs or Flash Steps that are easier to observe. | |

Apparation in Harry Potter is usually accompanied by a loud pop of displaced air. It's a testament to the skill of wizards like Dumbledore to arrive silently, seeming as if they simply slipped in when one wasn't looking. | |

SCP Foundation: Multiple, all just plain "disappearance" before reappearing elsewhere: SCP-429 ("Clockwork Teleporter"). When someone wears SCP-429 they can visualize a location and be instantly teleported there, without any warning, as the effect is just described as "disappearing": SCP-462 ("The Getaway Car"). When someone sits in the driver's seat of SCP-462 and turns the key, they will disappear and turn up near their intended destination a variable amount of time later, without any other teleportation effects: |

The Wheel of Time: Thinking Up Portals usually doesn't give any warning at the destination point, which makes Portal Cuts a real hazard, so channelers work out a way to Invoke Flashy Teleportation, and transmit a flash of light and a warning chime before the gateway opens. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders: DIO's power of stopping time in the OVA adaptation is at one point portrayed in this manner from Jotaro's perspective, to terrifying effect. Because he is not shown moving about within frozen time, DIO instead appears to teleport from place to place, silently vanishing into thin air without any flashy effects. | |

Escape from the Moon: As of chapter 19.5 of the sequel The Mare From the Moon, Pharynx has apparently learned how to do this, as he teleports back to the hive for a quick word with Thorax, and then back to the Crystal Empire afterward. Thorax makes a note to learn it himself. | |

Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition: The stealthiest of all teleportation spells is certainly translocation trick (from Magic of Faerun and Spell Compendium). Not only does the caster and target switch locations, they also exchange appearances through an illusion; thus there is no visual clues at all that the translocation happened. | |

The oldest Sherlock Holmes film, made in 1900 and called Sherlock Holmes Baffled, one minute long and originally made for the mutoscope, features a teleporting thief who simply disappears and reappears. It's notable for being an early use of teleportation special effects. | |

Rock and Rule: Mok's teleportation can be selectively toggled between this and Flashy. His first appearance has him appear in a dazzling lights and cracking electrics show, but later, while Mok is pitching his charms to Angel in his private garden, he can teleport silently as well. The first instance was done just to showboat. | |
