Glide.EXE

Glide.EXE (グライド), known as Glyde.EXE in his first appearance and Mega Man Battle Network Official Complete Works, is the personal NetNavi of Yai Ayanokoji in the Mega Man Battle Network series.

Overview
Glide is not considered a combat Navi and thus relies on the rare Battle Chips Yai has to provide to perform devastatingly powerful attacks. Glide instead has a level seven security license allowing him to access networks that other Navis would not be able to. His demeanor towards Yai is akin to that of a butler. While he may come off as a bit "snooty" (taking after his operator), he is still good friends with MegaMan, Roll, and GutsMan, just as his operator Yai is good friends with their operators Lan Hikari, Mayl Sakurai, and Dex Oyama.

Game History
Despite appearing in most of the games, he is never fought, nor does he even have actual battle sprites and Battle Chips (only using a single attack, Glide Flash, on a single HeelNavi before MegaMan faces Falzar/Gregar in Mega Man Battle Network 6), though he is shown fighting in the anime.

Anime History
Much like his video game counterpart, Glide (who's renamed Glyde) serves as the butler-esque Navi for Yai, with the two of them helping Lan, MegaMan, and the rest of their friends out from within their various adventures.

Trivia

 * Glide is the only NetNavi in the Mega Man Battle Network series named after a character from the Mega Man Legends series.
 * His operator Yai is also named after a character from the Legends series.
 * Interestingly, in Mega Man Battle Network 3, after Glide is defeated by NetBattler Q in the N1 Grand Prix, he does not appear again throughout the rest of the game. His next "appearance" is in the credits.
