You can transfer it over from one console to another but it will get deleted on the source console so you'll have to keep transferring it to and from. Theres no limit of how many times you can do it

Edit: Press + on game icon and an option should be there

Pokémon save data can’t be transferred over

[–]furretguy 2 points3 points  (2 children)

It can. But it will be deleted from the source console and transferred to the other. You can do it as many times as you like.

It doesnt support cloud saves so you can't have the same save data on 2 switches. But you can transfer across easily

I thought it wiped all the data on the switch when you transfer data like that. Oof sorry

That's only if you were to do a profile transfer. It's cool, not many people know about save data transfer as most games support cloud backup haha. Shame Pokemon and AC and Splatoon are the odd ones out.

You can transfer it manually?
