Unfortunately, the RMD distribution has to be separate for IRAs, and other types of retirement accounts- you can withdraw from one IRA to satisfy the RMD from multiplt IRA accounts, but not pensions etc.
Per the IRS "An IRA owner must calculate the RMD separately for each IRA that he or she owns, but can withdraw the total amount from one or more of the IRAs. Similarly, a 403(b) contract owner must calculate the RMD separately for each 403(b) contract that he or she owns, but can take the total amount from one or more of the 403(b) contracts.
However, RMDs required from other types of retirement plans, such as 401(k) and 457(b) plans have to be taken separately from each of those plan accounts."
