doctorgonzo Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Long story short I was transferring a Violet save between my modded and unmodded via the Save Transfer utility when the Transfer failed and now both Switch's are stuck in the Transfer loop, only option is to reinistialise both and lose everything. I had just done my Sword save perfectly like 5 mins prior. I luckily have my Pokemon saves backed up on the modded V1, however I will now obviously lose everything on my unmodded OLED My question is, once I reinitialise my main OLED, and then be forced to start each Pokemon game again since the saves will get wiped, can I simply create new saves, then overwrite them with my old ones and continue where I left off? So I will regain my original saves and TID/SID etc I plan to play Scarlet legit, the save is not illegally modded in any way it is 100% legal and clean, I just want to essentially restore my old one. Not after any advice on the process I am fully aware and able of how to do this all good have done it plenty, just last night it randomly failed and tanked everything All I wanna know is, should I be ok to simply overwrite a new save with my old data and pick up where I left off as though nothing happened? I assume making a new save after reinitialising will issue me a new TID and SID even though I will be using the same NS account. I am trying to avoid having to batch edit the saves with new TID and SID as all the PIDs will change and affect shiny status etc and it causes lot of conflicts I will have to manually rectify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
