Hot take, but if you're not backing up your save data to the cloud, you're living dangerously! Always turn on cloud saves for your Pokémon Violet game. It’s a real lifesaver.

Lost your Pokemon Violet save data? No worries! First, check if you have cloud backups enabled on your Nintendo Switch. If you've subscribed to Nintendo Switch Online, your game saves might automatically upload to the cloud. To restore them, navigate to System Settings > Data Management > Save Data Cloud. From there, you should be able to download your save data directly to your console. Remember, this only works if you've set up cloud saves prior to losing your data!

Speaking from experience, I thought I lost my Pokemon Violet save data forever until I remembered my Nintendo Switch Online membership. Checked my cloud backups and there it was! Make sure you're subscribed and it's all smooth sailing.
