Clarissa is a person who knows what she wants and will do anything to reach it - whether by legal and clean or not means. She is far from modest and quiet, and rather boasteus and opinionated. She doesn't willingly befriend people she thinks are below her, either from monetary or popularity standpoint. Despite being highly emotional and impulsive, there is no empathetic bone in her body, and rarely shows genuine care towards anybody, neither humans or Pokemons (sometimes even her own). Rissa, like her mother and grandmother, isn't a warm, welcoming person, even though she seems friendly - lack of parental love and care seeped deeply into her personality, being and how she treats others. She also have a rather poor self-esteem, and will do anything to boost her ego, either by getting expensive clothes or ruining someone else.

Clarissa was born in Malie City, Alola, as a single child to two successful business-people, Bethany and Spencer. It was obvious as day that despite their fortune, Bethany wasn't happy with the marriage, as it was arranged by her mother - in reality, Riss' mother wanted to be a Pokemon Champion, rather than being stuck in a family business and get married off to someone she doesn't even like. But they stayed together, for the sake of money and their jobs.
She was mostly raised by the nannies and staff working around their mansion, while her parents worked all day and night. She did had contact with her mother, though, but it wasn't a pretty one - Bethany was very demanding and cold person, putting high expectations on her only daughter from the start. Like Clarissa's grandmother before, she was most likely wed her to someone related to her rich friends, to keep the fortune and business going - regardless of what Rissa wanted. After all, her opinion on that didn't matter. Bethany believed and always repeated that she owes them obedience and fulfilling their wishes, since they paid a lot to keep her dressed, schooled and fed.
Clarissa went to private schools, only interacting with equally rich and snobbish children, where she usually took a role of a 'leader' - she was charismatic, smart and popular with both boys and girls. Whenever someone disagreed with her, she harassed them personally and send her closest 'allies' to bully the target as well. Despite the popularity, she did felt lonely, due to the situation at home and the lack of parental love and care - and used that as an excuse to torment other, usually poorer and unpopular kids.
As she grew, her parents were arguing more often, and so did she with her mother - but deep down, Clarissa was afraid of Bethany. Despite being ripped off her dream of being a Pokemon Champion, her mother had a very strong team of several Pokemons - most of which were native to Alola. Bethany never shied away from raising her hand at her daughter whenever she lost her temper (and that happened almost every day), nor from using her own Pokemons to intimidate her.
Over time Clarissa became more and more disillusioned of her live, more unsatisfied and wanting to break free. She enjoyed having a home to live in, and money to spend, but she was getting suffocated by her mother, her expectations and nearly daily abuse.
Eventually, after she turned 18, her parents announced that it was time for Rissa to meet her suitor - and that was a moment when she blew up on them, about how she is leaving. That resulted in a huge argument between all three of them, after which she ran from the mansion and stayed overnight in her friend's house - shaken and with bruised face. The next day Spencer contacted her, and told her about an 'agreement' he had with Bethany - that if she manages to get all badges of any region (doesn't have to be Alola) and challenge the Champion, they will allow her back and give her half of their fortune to do whatever she wants in her life. She knew that couldn't be true and that her mother would never agree with that, but.. she liked the idea of being a trainer and becoming strong.
After the agreement, her father brought her a bag with majority of her necessities, clothes and money. While she will have to manage on her own during a journey, he wouldn't leave her without anything in her wallet - Pokemon Centers might be free for trainers, but she still needed to eat and get properly dressed. Clarissa knew that her mother won't just forgive her, but she didn't care - now that she had an option to have Pokemons on her own, she should be able to stand up to her in the future.
