What the 'H' is going on?!

The picture provided doesn't appear to be a glitch as many others have said before, but I too have experienced..."smooth teleporting" that happens most whenever the opponent goes around a corner or a tree. For example, it'll look like to me that they are approaching from the front, and when I stomp from max range (on my screen), it'll be either an early stomp or will launch them to the left or right, not backwards.
