Just delete the old save file lol. Go to System Settings > Data Management > Delete Save Data, find Pokemon Violet and say goodbye to the old journey. Hello, fresh start!

Starting a new game in Pokemon Violet is super easy! All you gotta do is boot up your Nintendo Switch, fire up Pokemon Violet, and when you're at the title screen, press 'Up + X + B' on your controller. A prompt will appear asking if you're sure you wanna start a new adventure - hit 'Yes,' and you're ready to dive into the Paldea region all over again! Remember, this will erase your previous save, so make sure you've saved all those precious legendaries somewhere safe!

Honestly, why start over? You're gonna miss your old team. #NoRegrets

Protip: If you're starting a new game because you wanna catch 'em all again, consider trading your favorites to a friend first. Then, have them trade back to your new game. No need to say farewell to your beloved Pokémon pals!
