Deleting your Pokemon Violet save is pretty straightforward but a tad dramatic, if you ask me. First, you gotta boot up your Nintendo Switch. Then, hit the Home button to go to the main screen. Navigate to System Settings, scroll down until you see Data Management, and then click on it. Find ‘Delete Save Data’ at the bottom, select Pokemon Violet, and confirm you want to delete your save. Bam! Done. You've essentially performed a digital Pokémon release back into the wild!

Did this last week! Can confirm the steps are super simple. It was like saying goodbye to a bunch of pixelated pets. A fresh start was nice though!

Just to play devil's advocate here, but why delete your save? If it's about starting over, why not enjoy the journey again with your current roster? Seems like a waste to just wipe everything.
