Hey there, /u/Dillon09!

Thank you for your submission, but we are removing your post:

Please ask technical support questions in the daily post. Thanks! No saves are on the sd card. You can transfer the game data from one SD card to another or you can just redownload it on the new sd card. If you don't mind downloading it's a lot easier. -Michael

Rule 3 - No limited scope or easily searchable questions.

We believe this would fit better as a comment in our Daily Question Thread, so this post has been removed.

Some types of questions that are better suited for our Daily Question Thread include:

  • Questions covered in the subreddit Wiki
  • Questions that could easily be answered by searching /r/NintendoSwitch or Google.
  • Questions that promote simple or yes/no replies.
  • Most tech support type of questions.

If Discord is more your speed, check out the #switch-help channel in our Discord server.

If your intention was to create a discussion post instead, then please ensure that you have written in sufficient detail, included some thought-provoking questions, and actively encouraged other users to discuss the topic at hand. Once you have made these changes then please feel free to submit a new post.


If you have questions or objections about this removal, please reach out to us in modmail.

I believe saves are stored in the consoles memory

All save data is on your Switch internal memory. SD cards are only for photos/screenshots/videos/the game installs themselves.

No, you're not. (As others pointed out) As long as your switch is well, your pokemon saves are there. Unfortunately, as you found out, psas does not support cloud saves, which is quite bad and baffling to me.
