Miette (Japanese: ミルフィ Millefeui) is a recurring character in the Pokémon anime. She is a Pokémon Performer and a rival of Serena who first appeared in A Battle by Any Other Name!.
History
Miette made her debut appearance in A Battle by Any Other Name!. She approached Ash and his friends when her Slurpuff took Serena's newly baked Poké Puffs and ate them. After telling Serena that Slurpuff thought her Poké Puffs were of moderate quality, she introduced herself to the group and let them taste some of her own Poké Puffs. As Serena and Miette quarrelled over each other's knowledge about Poké Puffs, Bonnie proposed that they should compete against each other in the Poké Puff Contest held that same day. Miette told the group that she was already planning to enter said contest, and Serena then decided to enter as well.
Miette entered the contest and quickly advanced to the final round. Afterwards, she went to look for ingredients to use, but found out that every shop in town was sold out of Poké Puff ingredients. After talking to Ash and his friends, who were experiencing the same problem, she decided to go to a nearby forest with the group to find Berries. There, she came with the idea to use her Slurpuff, as she can pick up sweet scents to easily find Berries. After walking through the forest for a while, her Slurpuff picked up a scent, which it and the group then followed. On top of a cliff, they found a large amount of fresh Berries. It turned out Team Rocket had stolen all Berries from town and the forest. Miette then had Slurpuff help defeat Team Rocket and retrieve the stolen Berries.
The next day, Serena and Miette competed in the final round of the Poké Puff Contest. For the final round, Miette made a Poké Puff consisting of cotton candy and whipped cream, with a Tamato Berry topping. It was not enough to win however, as both Miette and Serena lost to the Berrybaker kids. As they both lost, they settled their quarrel and went on friendly terms. Miette decided to continue her journey and keep studying making Poké Puffs. She also whispered to Serena to tell Ash how she truly felt about him or she might reveal her own feelings and take Ash for herself, causing Serena to blush.
She reappeared in Performing with Fiery Charm! to compete in the Dendemille Town Pokémon Showcase Rookie Class. She and Serena remain on much friendlier terms than before, though Miette is very fond of playfully teasing Serena about her crush on Ash, making Serena blush furiously every time.
Miette appeared again in Party Dancecapades! where she attended a party hosted by Monsieur Pierre. She partnered with Ash for the ballroom dance and later faced off against him and Serena in a Tag Battle alongside James. Despite her best efforts, Miette ended up losing the battle.
She appeared again in Master Class Is in Session! where she entered the Pokémon Showcase Master Class that was being held in Gloire City. In the first round, she was grouped with Serena and Sara Lee. She was able to deliver a unique performance along with her Slurpuff. However, it wasn't impressive enough and she ended up receiving fewer votes than Serena. After her loss, Miette became very emotional and cried backstage, but she soon wiped the tears and congratulated Serena, telling her to win the competition for the both of them.
Character
Miette has a strong passion for baking and is shown to be quite skilled at it. However, in her first appearance, she seemed to have a very high opinion of herself. She originally considered her Poké Puffs to be "perfect" and this was what ultimately started her rivalry with Serena, after she claimed hers were only "moderate" in comparison. After both girls lost the final of the Poké Puff Contest, however, Miette was willing to make up with Serena and they parted on relatively friendly terms. This was further shown during the Pokémon Showcase, when Miette showed no resentment towards Serena beating her in the final.
Miette quickly picked up on Serena's crush on Ash and is fond of teasing her about it at every instance she can, usually in a playful manner. She has also told Serena that she has a crush on Ash herself, and often teasingly whispers in her ear that she will reveal her feelings to him if Serena does not reveal hers first, an action that highly embarrasses Serena.

Later, when Ash, his friends and Miette went to a nearby forest to find Berries, Slurpuff picked up a scent, and the group quickly followed it. On top of a cliff the group found a large amount of fresh Berries. Right at that moment, the Swirlix from earlier returned, now seemingly scared of something.
