Nope, changing the time in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet works differently compared to previous games. The game syncs with your Nintendo Switch's internal clock, but you can't cheat the system by adjusting the clock to manipulate in-game events. The game is designed to reflect real-world time to make the gameplay experience more immersive. So, if you're looking to evolve that time-specific Pokemon, you gotta wait for the actual time of day to change naturally.

Actually, you can't change the in-game time. It's all tied to the real-world clock on your Switch. So, if it's night time IRL, it's night in the game. Makes catching those day or night specific Pokemon a waiting game.

Why would you wanna change the time anyway? Part of the fun is seeing how the game world changes with the real-world day-night cycle. Just enjoy the ride!
