A/N: Right, because my other Pokémon crossover is going so swimmingly well that I'm doing another one. Also, apparently, I'm going to be one of those writers. You know, the ones who put up a new story and doesn't update the others for long periods of time (you know the ones I'm talking about). In any case, a few things I want to clear out. I've already chosen what Pokémon Yang and Blake will use. Also, they will be eleven years old as per the canon age the game sets. So, that means there'll be minimalistic swearing since they are kids. I haven't fully decided to put in other characters from RWBY to be in here so that's up to debate if it'll fit well in the story. Finally, everything in Ultra Sun and Moon will be combined into this story and I have some pretty good ideas for what's going to happen. With all of that explained now, let's get into the game, er, I mean story. And before I forgot, anime Kantai Collection opening as the first opening song.

Route One: Alola From Alola!
It was a cool summer night in Vermillion City and in one particular house, a large change was taking place. In one of the rooms, an eleven-year-old blonde girl in her Beedrill pajamas was packing away some of her belongings in a box right beside her bed crouching. It was the last she needed to do for the night. "Annnnd…done. At least I have that squared away. Now for the rest of this stuff." She stood up and stretched out her arms while making a relieving sound. Once the young girl was done, she unconsciously turned her attention to a photo frame on her computer desk that had a picture of an older woman with her team of Pokémon surrounding her with all of them smiling on the left side of her computer. She smiled as well as the picture always does whenever she looks at it. To the right of the computer was a magazine and ticket on top of it. Before she could turn in for the night, she heard a ringing coming from her laptop and walked over to it. She put her hand on top of the mouse and clicked on the video cam app. A window appeared to reveal none other than the famous Professor Kukui from the Alola region. The young girl put up her best smile for him. "Hello, Professor."
Kukui smiled back while trying to adjust the camera. "Hang on, now. Gimme a just a sec…" He finally fixed the angle and waved at the young girl. "Hey there! Good evening! So, the day has finally come that you're moving to Alola!"
The young girl nodded at the Professor. "Yeah, it really is. It's kinda hard to believe actually. So, can you tell me more about what kind of a region Alola is again?"
Kukui didn't mind the question as he was more than happy to explain. He brought up another window to display the full map of the Alola region. "Alola is a region made up of several islands. That could be the reason the region is chock full of nothing but rare Pokémon, yeah!" The region map disappeared. "There's no shortage of cool Pokémon out here in Alola either!" He brought out a Pokéball held in his hand. "Such mysterious creatures!"
He tossed the Pokéball in the air and a brief flash occurred. In the next second, a puppy-like Pokémon dropped down next to him. The young girl squealed with delight over how adorable it looked. "Oh, how cute! I've never seen a Pokémon like that before!"
Kukui liked the expression she was making. "You find 'em all over. In the grass, in the caves, in the sky and sea." Another Pokémon came into view and it seemed to be a bug-type as far as she'd guess. It seemed cute as well but not as cute as the puppy Pokémon. "Here in Alola, we love our Pokémon and we depend on them heaps, too." The puppy and the bug-type seemed to be very affectionate toward the Professor. "Some of us even battle with 'em, if we call ourselves Pokémon Trainers!" He looked over to the two Pokémon "Rockruff, Cutiefly, I'll play with you later, so cool your jets." Rockruff barked at him and the two left him alone for now. "Alright, I gotta ask you some questions about yourself so I can introduce you to everybody! So, which photo should I use for your Trainer Passport?" Another window appeared and it showed eight different pictures of herself with different clothes. It didn't matter much to her and just chose a random picture. "You okay with the one you chose?"
The girl nodded at the question. "Yeah, I'm fine with it."
"Alright then, I'll let you spell out your name for me."
This part was easy enough for her. "Okay, my first name is Yang. Y-A-N-G. Last name is Xiao Long. X-I-A-O L-O-N-G."
Kukui wrote out the name and smiled brightly at it as a profile picture of Yang appeared on the lower right corner of her laptop. "Ten-four good buddy! I'll let everybody out here know you're on your way!" He crossed his arms and seemed confident "Yang Xiao Long. Yeah, that's a name that hits you like a Trop Kick right to the head! Woo! Can't wait to see you in person then, cousin!" He waved goodbye and turned off the videocam.
As it did, Yang sighed as she can hardly believe this was happening. She was moving away from Kanto to Alola. A new place, a new region, and new Pokémon. Normally, anyone would be ecstatic in traveling to a new region but Yang felt melancholic about the whole thing. She's only known about Kanto growing up and she was supposed to start out on her journey last year but this sudden move scrapped that idea. Shortly in time, she'll leave everything behind from this place. All the memories she had in the home, the good and the bad times, and also-
"Yang! Come help me with these boxes!" Yang sighed at the voice calling for her and walked over to help out. It seemed she had to do a little more before sleeping in her home for the last time.

Two sets of frantic footsteps could be heard in a high-tech facility. One set was running away while the other was chasing the first. A young girl running away with a Pokéball duffel bag slinging over her shoulder made it to a lift and hastily pushed a button. Guardrails rose up and the lift ascended her to the next level. As she reached her next stop, she started running again and wondering where to escape. Not far behind her were another pair of men chasing after her. At this point, escape would be almost impossible but she had to keep going. She had no other choice. While the girl was running, the bag mysteriously opened a little to reveal two glowing dots from within the duffel. After taking a corner, the girl stopped when she saw two people wearing strange outfits. They blocked her off and she stopped. Now was trapped in-between the two men that were chasing after her and the two strangers in front of her. One of the strangers made their way to her and the girl was frightened as this may be it for her. However, an unusual light shined from her duffel and the girl looked toward at it with a surprised expression. The light grew brighter and astounded both the strangers and the two men. There as a bright flash in the shape of a small dome that made both parties shield themselves with their arms so the light couldn't blind them. When they lowered their arms, the girl they were chasing after had disappeared.
Three months later
It was a bright sunny morning with the sun overlooking the Alola region. In one particular house, the sizzling of hash browns and onions cooking on a stove could be heard. Two pieces of toast also popped from the toaster. The person in front of them smiled at their work. "I'd say they're almost done. I guess it's time now." The person looked at their Meowth. "Meowth, can you go and wake Yang up."
Meowth mewled at the command and ran off toward Yang's room. It approached the door and jumped as it grabbed the doorknob with its paws. With a quick twist, the door opened and it ran into the room. Meowth looked around the room and saw Yang sleeping on the bed in her Beedrill pajamas. It ran up to Yang's bed and jumped on it. What it did next gave Yang a rude awakening. It swiped the young blonde's face with its paws multiple times and Yang screamed. She immediately stood up and glared at Meowth. "You freaking cat!" Meowth meowed at her as it dropped something. Yang took a closer look at it and saw that it was an Awakening. She laughed sarcastically at the joke. "Oh, ha ha. Very funny." Yang then smelled something delicious in the air and could figure out what it was. "Smells like breakfast is almost ready." She smiled at the thought of breakfast and tossed the covers aside. Yang stood up from the bed and stretched out her arms while closing her eyes and letting out a satisfied grunt. When her brief stretch was done, Yang made her way to her door and exit the room with Meowth following her.
She'd already arrived at the living room and was greeted with a smile by her parent wearing an apron. "Good morning, Yang!"
Yang smiled back at them. "Morning…" She let out a yawn while covering her mouth with her hand until it subsided. "Dad. Breakfast almost done yet?"
Yang's father, Taiyang, nodded at her. "Just about. Go ahead and take a seat. I'll have a plate for you shortly." The young blonde nodded and walked toward her chair. She pulled the chair out and sat while waiting for her plate. It didn't take long for Taiyang to set a plate of onions mixed in with hash browns with two pieces of buttered toast to the side. He also laid a cup of Sitrus berry juice. He also laid a second plate for himself and another cup. "I'll join you shortly. I just have to fill Meowth's bowl first." Yang understood and saw her father fill Meowth's bowl with its food. Once it was done, Meowth ran up to its bowl and started to happily chow down on its food. Taiyang went over to his chair, pulled it out, and sat down with his own breakfast in front.
The two of them clapped their hands together while their eyes were closed. "Thank you for the food!" They opened their eyes and grabbed their nearby forks as they started to eat together. As usual, her father's cooking was great but there was something obviously missing. That thought alone slowed Yang's eating to a crawl.
Taiyang saw this and thought of starting a conversation with his daughter. "You know, it's kinda hard to believe it's morning over here. It's so different compared to Kanto. Then again, we are kinda far away living here now." He laughed heartily but Yang kept a somber expression while still eating slowly. Taiyang stopped laughing and sighed as he had to get to the root of the problem. "Look, Yang. I know it can be a little difficult adjusting to a new place but this is for the better. For the both of us. I know it's been hard losing your mother. It's been hard for me too but a fresh start will do us better. You'll see." Yang could only hope so but in truth, she still wasn't over her mother's passing. She'd idolized her mother as a great trainer and has heard more than her fair share of how her parents met. Yang had a dream one day that when she became a great Pokémon Trainer, she'd challenge her mother to a battle. However, that day would never come to her now. Seeing his daughter now made Taiyang switch to a more uplifting topic. "Right, so…uh…how about those Alolan Pokémon? Are you ready to see some of them?"
Yang stopped eating and had an indifferent expression on her face. "I guess. They do seem pretty cool."
That answer seemed more than enough for her father. "Yeah, they sure are. I think after breakfast, you should go and get dressed so you can see them."
It did seem like a good idea to Yang but she was uncertain about one little detail. "You sure you don't need help with unpacking the rest of our stuff while I'm gone? I hope you won't take forever to do it."
Her father laughed contently at the question. "I'll be fine so don't worry. You've been long overdue in seeing the world. I've had my chance, your mother had your chance and now, it's finally your chance."
Taiyang brought up a good point. Yang's mother may be gone but she could still follow in her footsteps. She'll have at least that going for her. The young blonde finally gave her father a joyous smile and nodded at him. The speed of her eating picked up and was able to finish before Taiyang while downing her juice. After finishing, Yang gave a "thank you" before leaving the table and headed back to her room. After a switch of clothes, Yang looked in a mirror in front of her checking out her new look. Since they were going to live in a tropical region, a different set of clothes was required. Her hair was put up in high pigtails, wearing a black and yellow horizontally striped sporty tank with the number of a white fifteen, black pleated shorts, orange knee socks, and grey espadrilles with yellow and red spots on the top of the shoes. To complete the look, she had a pair of yellow sunglasses in her left pocket and a black sporty bag. All in all, she liked her new look. "Alright, I think I'm ready." Yang took one last look in front of her mirror before leaving her room once again. When she arrived in the living room, the young blonde saw her father washing the dishes in the sink. She cleared her throat to grab her father's attention and he turned around to face her. Yang giggled at her father. "So, how do I look?" She gave a quick twirl for her dad to see.
Taiyang smiled back at his daughter. "I say you look like you're ready to set out on your own adventure. You remember what your mother taught you about adventuring outside, right?"
Yang rolled her eyes and laughed at the question. "Only like an infinite amount of times."
"And you remember about walking through tall grass."
And now he was just being an overprotective father. "I'll be fine so don't worry. The wild Pokémon won't even get to me." She'd hoped so for her father's sake.
Taiyang was still a little worried sending his daughter without a Pokémon but the town is close enough to their new home. "You know where Iki Town is, right? You can see some of the new sights while going there."
Yang crossed her arms and smirked at her father. "Yes, I know. I did read the brochure while coming over here."
Taiyang nodded at his daughter as he was sure she was ready now. "Okay then. Get out there and show Alola what you can do!"
Yang didn't need to be told twice and gunned for the front door. She opened the door and finally went out before closing it. For some reason, Taiyang knew something special would happen to Yang. It reminded him of when he started his own journey and that led him to that fateful encounter with his wife back then. Even remembering that day brought a smile to his face and now his daughter will be starting out on a journey of her own. "Raven, I think you'd be proud of our daughter right about now." He had enough reminiscing and sighed as he had his own challenge. "Right, now about those boxes…"
B
The placement of their house was a first for Yang to hear. Normally, people would buy a house in a small town but their new home was in a route instead. It was strange but she liked it. The scenery everywhere was very beautiful as she was walking up a hill next to her new home. She arrived at an open corner which she thought was the halfway point and ran up to the fence. The young blonde stopped and laughed as she took in the breathtaking view in front of her. There was a cove she could see in the distance and saw that there is a way to get it. She continued her way toward Iki Town and encountered her first patch of tall grass. It was small but no doubt there are wild Pokémon in it. Still, she wasn't going to let something like this stop her. "No worries. If I just run fast enough, a wild Pokémon won't get to me." She got into a running position and readied herself. "One…two…THREE!" She bolted right at the tall grass. However, she heard a rustling sound coming from it and immediately stopped in front while stumbling in front of it. Coming out of the grass was a small rodent-like Pokémon. Obviously one of these Alolan Pokémon since Yang has never seen this one before. It barked at her and Yang took a step back while laughed with a little fear in it. She put her hands up as a sort of defense. "Hold on there. No need to be hasty now. We can get along, right?" At this time, the young blonde really did wish she had a Pokémon with her. Or at least the Meowth.
The Alolan Pokémon crept nearer toward Yang and shrieked at her again. Before Yang decided to hightail out to safety, three new Pokémon ran up to her and came in between her and the new Alolan Pokémon. They must've been Alolan Pokémon as well since they weren't anything she'd seen before either. One was seemed similar to a Hoothoot, the next seemed to be a feline Pokémon like Meowth, and the last one seemed to be a clown of some sort. They all hooted/meowed/barked at the first Alolan Pokémon and it seemed to be intimated by them. It turned around and headed back into the tall grass. Yang was grateful they showed up when they did and all three turned around to face her. She lowered herself slightly and placed both her hands on her knees to get a closer look at them while smiling gratefully at them. "Hey, thanks you three. You really helped me out there." Each of them did their individual cry as a "you're welcome" to her.
"Hey, there, cousin!" Yang stood up and turned around to see the last person she'd expected to see this early. She saw him walk up to her and smiled joyfully at her. "Hang on, I know you. You're Yang, right?"
Yang nodded at the question as she knew the man in front of her. "Yeah, I am and you're Professor Kukui. It's great to finally meet you in person."
Kukui shared the feeling. He saw what happened to her and check on her. "You okay? I saw you get attacked like that."
Yang just smiled confidently at the Professor. "I was scared at first but luckily, I had these three help me out." She took one step to the side to show Kukui the three Pokémon that helped her.
Kukui was glad to hear about that. "A funny story about them. I'm actually looking after these Pokémon, but they dashed right out of their own to save you. But I guess I'm getting ahead of myself. Welcome to Alola, the Pokémon paradise! That's what I'm supposed to be saying and it is nice to finally meet you in person too. As you know, people and Pokémon live and work together here in Alola too. Don't you ever forget you can go anywhere, yeah, as long as you got Pokémon in your corner. Wild Pokémon could be lurking in the tall grass, yeah, just waiting to leap out and bite you."
Yang chuckled awkwardly at that. "Yeah, I'll try not to do that again."
Kukui was certain about that hard-learned lesson. "You'll be fine if you've got a partner of your own." He looked past the young blonde and looked at the three Pokémon. Yang turned around to face them as well. "Hey, there! Let me introduce the Pokémon that helped you just now." The three Pokémon all walked simultaneously to the side and stood next to each other in a line. Kukui gestured at the first Pokémon. "This is the Grass-type Pokémon, Rowlet." Rowlet hooted while turning its body 360 degrees. Kukui gestured at the next Pokémon. "And the Fire-type Pokémon, Litten." Litten meowed as it jumped a bit. Kukui then gestured at the last Pokémon. "And the Water-type Pokémon Popplio." Popplio barked happily as it leaned forward as it clapped its rear flippers together. Yang thought they were all adorable. "Y'see, the fact of the matter is…" Yang turned to the Professor. "One of these Pokémon will become your first partner, woo!"
Yang was ecstatic when she heard that. "Seriously! I'm actually going to choose one of them?" It appears how things work in Alola wasn't so different after all from Kanto. The only difference was selecting a different kind of starter Pokémon.
Kukui nodded and then realized why they all saved Yang in the first place. "Heh, maybe that's why they wanted to save you?" Now came the most important time for any trainer. Choosing their first Pokémon. "Go on and choose the one you'd like to keep as your partner, cousin."
Yang didn't need to be told twice as she turned to face the three starters. She studied all three of them very carefully. "Let's see. The starter Pokémon I'll choose will be…" The young blonde examined Rowlet closely first, then Litten, and finally, Popplio. She wanted to take all three of them but she could only choose one. Yang now understood the agony of new trainers choosing their starter and she was no different. After thinking it over for several minutes, Yang smiled as she pointed at one of the starters. "You."
A/N: Ha ha, cliffhanger! So, who do you think Yang chose for her starter? You'll find out soon enough (hopefully). And now, Bleach ending 30 as the first ending song.
