The easiest and most simple way to do this is to cave, and buy Pokémon Bank. I assume you know that you can transfer Pokémon from Bank into Home, but I forgot whether that's a premium Home feature. If it is, add another month of Home onto the price. One year of Bank (yes, year, there isn't an option for a single month as far as I remember) is $4.99. One month of Home (if transferring from Bank is a premium feature) is $2.99. If it's not a premium feature, it's free for 30 Pokémon, which I assume is more than enough to get all of your 'mons to where you need them. So, if you want these Pokémon in your Sword save, it'll cost at most $7.98, and at least $4.99. The less expensive, but more difficult method is hacking your Switch. If you don't have the specific Switch needed to hack it, you are going to have to pay. The website below is a website to tell you whether your Switch is hackable or not. https://ismyswitchpatched.com If you can't find the serial number, it's that white tag on the same side as the USB-C port. If your Switch is hackable, great! Just a bit of effort, and you'll have yourself a hacked Switch. If not, oof. Cough up between $5 and $8 for Bank and Home. However, there is another method for hacking the Switch that I'm not 100% sure on. I don't remember the name or anything about how difficult it is to pull off, but it allows for EVERY Switch, regardless of serial number, to be hacked. A quick Google search should give you the answer on that. Happy transferring!

So, I reset the legendary event flags in my US save, as I had already caught all the legendaries in the game almost 4 years ago when the game first dropped. Back then, I wasn't too interested in shiny Pokémon, and so I just thought "I've got all the legendaries, what else could I want?" Almost 4 years and a pandemic later, now I both care about slightly miscoloured mons, and also having legitimate shiny legendaries. Considering other than maybe ORAS and SwSh, USUM is the easiest set of games to get shiny legendaries. And so, I reset my legendary flags. Since then, I've been trying to shiny hunt any legendaries possible, and this starts with Azelf. In my save, I have the shiny charm. Yet my reset count is over normal base odds (over 4096). My question is: If you reset the legendary flags, can they ever be shiny again? Or is my 4000+ resets just very bad luck? Thanks!
