Shade, Shadow Stride, Teleportation?

[Shin Okada]

Does Shadow Stride ability of Shade considered to be teleportation effect? Say, for the purpose of Anticipate Teleportation spell (SC)?

From FRCS,

Shadow Stride (Sp): A shade of at least 8th level can vanish from its current location and reappear in any shadowy area within 500 feet, as often as once every 2 rounds. Using this ability is a move equivalent action, so the shade can use another ability, cast a spell, or attack in the same round.

I guess this ability is using Shadow plane, while teleportation spells are using Astral plane. I don't know if that matters, though.

I would say yes. Anticipate Teleportation states that it delays all teleportation spells and effects, including those with the teleportation spell descriptor. Moving between two places instantly is teleportation.

Does Shadow Stride say it works like dimension door?

No it doesn't.

So, does Shadow Stride have the Teleportation descriptor? That seems more to the point.

But it is, in essence, a "teleportation effect", so if the wording of Anticipate Teleportation is as listed, then it's included.
