Line 4:
A special technique commonly found in anime and videogames, wherein a character has the ability to swap places with an opponent at will, potentially putting them into harms way, or at the very least, getting them out of a sticky jam. Is particularly cruel when used in the context of a race, as all of another's hard work can suddenly be taken for your own benefit.
In videogames, that is also often used to switch an enemy with another enemy, in special one which is easier to kill or will offer more problems [[Flunky Boss|standing on the sidelines attacking you while you are concentrated on a more important enemy]]. A favorite of tag team and strategy games, obviously.

* In ''[[Hunter X Hunter]]'', this is the basis of Goreinu's abilities. He can summon two gorillas, a black one and a white one, that are capable of independent movement; Goreinu can instantly switch locations with the black gorilla, and can force someone else to switch locations with the white one.
* In ''[[Naruto]]'', the substitution technique can be used as this, but is generally useless because after all most battles are one-on-one and fights happens on open fields. Kakashi however uses the technique in the Introduction Arc to switch places with a Naruto clone, making Naruto mistake his own clone for Kakashi using another jutsu, of transformation, to look like him, and causing a brawl between real Naruto and his clones as it turns out that one was not Kakashi.
