So this is just something I did on a whim, and will probably continue to do so whenever I'm bored or have the spare time. This will be a collection of RWBY (tho really just White Rose) oneshots in a Pokemon Go!AU, some from a prompt off Tumblr. Each oneshot will have its prompt at the beginning if applicable.
Enjoy!
(And Team Instinct for life!) ;)
.:RWBY Go:.
1: We keep running into each other at the same pokéstops and you're really cute and we're on the same team do you want to team up
It didn't matter where Ruby went, she always seemed to be at one stop or another. Ever since the game's release, Ruby had encountered this girl at least three times a week at one of the many pokéstops around her apartment.
Yet, neither of them had said one word to the other.
Their existence had been mutually acknowledged, of that there was no doubt. Every time one of them approached the stop where the other already stood hunched over their scroll, their eyes would meet, a spark of recognition now glimmering behind masks of grey and blue.
Ruby wanted to say something—gods, did she want to. She had stumbled across many other players during her time on her "journey," yet none had ignited the spark in her that this one girl did.
Perhaps it was because she was always just there all the time now, Ruby felt like she already knew her without even knowing her. Ruby never strayed too far from home on her hunts as her social and general anxiety kept her rooted in familiar areas, so of course naturally she would scurry away from any human presence as quickly as possible.
It was probably because this girl was just so beautiful that had Ruby hooked.
Much too pretty to be playing a nerdy game such as this. Ruby ate, drank, and breathed nerd, but this girl? She was prim and proper, rich probably—her gleaming, latest edition scroll always stuck out to Ruby.
As Ruby approached a pokéstop outside a local café just down the street from her place, her heart began to hammer at the sight of the girl sitting casually on a bench outside, eyes glued to the scroll's screen before her.
A fire ignited in Ruby at that moment.
She was going to talk to this girl. Today.
Puffing out her chest for some semblance of self-confidence, Ruby strutted over, placing herself on the opposite end of the bench. Hesitantly she peered at the girl's scroll. Sure enough, the familiar game was there for all to see. Now Ruby knew this wasn't just strange coincidence.
Not like she had ever really thought that… Honestly!
"H-Hi," Ruby squeaked after moments of not being acknowledged.
The girl glanced her way casually with a noncommittal "hello" before returning to her game. Ruby could see a monster had appeared now for the girl and checked to see if any were nearby for herself.
However, once the monster was successfully captured by this stunning stranger, she looked back to Ruby as if doing a delayed double take, her eyes finally lighting up in recognition.
"Oh!" she exclaimed. "It's you!"
"Y-Yeah," Ruby mumbled, cursing her stutter. "W-We seem to have k-knack for running in-into one a-another."
The girl bared a tight smile at that. "Indeed."
"W-What team are you on?" Ruby asked next, her nerd side flaring and begging to be released.
"Instinct," the girl replied casually, yet pleasantly.
Ruby's heart hammered faster.
"Me too!"
The girl now had a genuine smile present. "What's your strongest pokémon?"
Ruby had to contain her squeal. The girl was asking her questions now? She was actually engaging the hot mess that was Ruby Rose? A pretty girl was actually giving her the time of day?
Anxiety quelled momentarily, Ruby subconsciously scooted closer to the girl on the bench, bringing up her arsenal of monsters.
"I have an Arcanine with a CP of 1547 that I got as a Growlithe from an egg. I named him Zwei after my dog. He's my favorite by far, and my strongest."
The girl didn't seem deterred by her personal space being invaded, instead choosing to bring up her scroll so Ruby could see, their arms brushing from their close proximity.
"This is Myrtenaster," she said, giggling slightly as Ruby's eyes lit up. "She's a Dewgong I evolved from a Seel I found by a pond near my house. Her CP's not quite as high as your Arcanine, only 747, but I can't get out as much as I'd like to train her."
"She's still awesome!" Ruby cooed. Looking up at the girl's face, she met her gaze with a confidence she hadn't mustered from within in a while. "Have you taken any gyms?"
The girl huffed faux-haughtily. "Have I?" She had a smirk present that made Ruby nearly swoon. "You know the public library a few blocks from here? Myrtenaster's been holding it for the past two days straight. Whenever those Valor mooks or Mystic crazies try and take it, we immediately take it right back."
Ruby's smile had grown so much by now, she felt as if her face would split open any minute, yet it only continued to beam brightly.
"Zwei and I have held the gym at our school for the past week!" she couldn't help but boast.
The girl's eyes flashed at that then.
"You mean Signal High?"
Confused, Ruby's anxiety flared as she answered, "Y-Yeah?"
"That's you? I've been wondering!"
"You g-go to Signal t-too?"
The girl's mouth quirked into another smile. "Top in my class!"
"That's you?!" Ruby echoed the girl's earlier exclamation in a squeak. "You're Weiss Schnee?"
Ruby couldn't help notice the not-too-subtle flinch Weiss made at the cry of her name.
"I am," she affirmed.
Ruby made no move to say anything in return, and instead remained still and silent as she gaped at the beauty before her who of course had to turn out and be the richest girl in the area and go to school unknowingly with Ruby.
Weiss cleared her throat softly, finally snapping Ruby out of her daze.
"Since you know who I am, may I get the name of my fellow Instinct teammate?"
Blushing at the eloquent way Weiss had asked for her name, and the fact that she would now be on a first name basis with her pokéstop stranger, and Schnee herself, Ruby couldn't help avert her gaze.
"M-My name's Ruby," she mumbled. "R-Ruby Rose."
Weiss grinned again, standing from the bench and outstretching a hand towards Ruby.
"Well, Ruby, fellow Instinct, my scroll has just alerted me that Myrtenaster's gym has just fallen to those Valor scum. Shall you, Zwei, and I go teach them a lesson?"
Ruby honestly had to fight to contain her squeal again, choosing instead to put her energy into taking Weiss's hand and leaping from the bench with an elated whoop.
"Hell yeah!" she cried. Taking Weiss's hand on pure instinct alone, Ruby began pulling her down the street to the library. "Chaaaaaarge!"
Behind her, she heard Weiss giggle, but when the girl only grasped her hand tighter, Ruby blushed.
She had a feeling this was the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
