'''Miles''' (Japanese: '''アキヒト''' ''Akihito''), known as '''William''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, a minor recurring character in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, belongs to the Super Nerd class.
{{main|Miles (Adventures)}}
 
A Super Nerd named Miles is a recurring character who debuted in the {{MangaArc|Yellow}}. He was hired by [[Agatha]] to steal {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]], but joined the side of good after being defeated by {{adv|Yellow}}.
====History====
{{-}}
====={{chap|Yellow}}=====
Miles first appears in ''[[PS046|Whacked by Marowak!]]'' where he is disguised as {{adv|Red}}, punches [[Erika]] and reveals himself before taking away [[Pika]]. He uses a coat of rubbery stocking to shield himself from the Pikachu's attacks, as well as {{p|Marowak}}, {{p|Paras}}, and {{p|Persian}} to escape from and confound the citizens of [[Celadon City]]. He is later defeated in ''[[PS048|Paras Sight]]'' by {{adv|Yellow}}'s Pokémon coupled with the timely arrival of [[Misty]], [[Brock]], [[Erika]], and [[Blaine]], and Yellow gets Pika back from him. In ''[[PS049|As Gastly as Before]]'', he is taken away by a {{p|Gastly}} and it is revealed (after {{adv|Blue}} saves him) that he was hired by [[Agatha]] of the [[Elite Four]]. Weeks later, in ''[[PS076|Take a Chance on Chansey]]'', Miles wakes up at [[Cinnabar Gym]], where {{tc|Camper}} Evan is taking care of him while Blaine is absent. He then tells Evan that he was the first to find Red frozen on [[Mt. Moon]], and it was here that he found bits of Red's clothing that contained his scent to fool Pika.
 
====={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}=====
In ''[[PS153|Oh, It's Ho-Oh!]]'', Miles and his Persian and Evan and his Haunter are seen having a quick battle with Evan emerging as the victor. They are revealed to be taking part in the next Pokémon League and because they do not have Gym Badges, they have to take part in the preliminary tournament. However, because of the attack caused by the [[Masked Man]], the Pokémon League tournament was canceled and they never got a chance to compete.
 
====={{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}=====
Miles and Evan also made a cameo appearance in ''[[PS295|Double Down Deoxys]]'', visiting Blaine for a while.

A Super Nerd (Japanese: 理科系のおとこ Science Man; in Generation I, also known as りかけい Science) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation I games. They are generally depicted as skinny young men with long hair and glasses, and are grown-up male School Kids.[1] In HeartGold and SoulSilver, they are accompanied by a remote-controlled robotic Pikachu holding a Poké Ball.

They generally use a combination of Poison- and Electric-type Pokémon based on inanimate objects, except those in the Cinnabar Gym, who specialize in Fire-types instead.

In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Super Nerds battled outside of Gyms will award three Poké Balls along with prize money upon being defeated.

In Pokémon Stadium, they are referred to as Nerds and specialize in Pokémon knowing Selfdestruct or Explosion.
