Restarting in Pokemon Violet is pretty simple but irreversible, so make sure you're ready to say goodbye to your current progress! First, launch the game on your Nintendo Switch. Then, on the Title Screen, press the X Button, the B Button, and the Up direction on the left Joy-Con simultaneously. Keep holding them until the game asks if you want to delete your save file. Confirm your choice, and voila, a fresh start awaits!

Just a heads up, if you're looking to restart because you messed up your starter choice, remember there's no going back. Plus, trading is always an option to get the starters you missed. But if you're set on restarting, follow the button combo on the title screen: X + B + Up (on the D-pad).

Honestly, just trade with friends if you regret your starter or missed a Poké. Restarting wipes all the hard work. Think twice!
