this is deserved. its a wake up call for an idiot addicted to digital faggotry. go outside.

Pokemon SV still suffers from 32 boxes.
He can easily replace them all and you lose move sets anyway now.
Careful if you inject Events in to SV Home tracker won't work unless they come in from the correct game you get that 100005 error.

Getting this attached to video game shit is silly. Just finish the main story and move on.

It really is nothing.

Meanwhile my pirated version of Leaf Green has its save file living in cold storage and is functionally impossible to delete and will still be the same when I'm 90. How much do I pay for this service? $0 a month.
Just let people back this shit up to sd card.

>>712867350 (OP)
I don't get it, you can just save your pokemon on your own computer with pkhex

i saved all my pokemon on my computer in like a 1 megabyte folder (each pokemon file is like 1 kilobyte), a literal floppy disk can have 1000 pokemon saved on it

pokemon home is like the biggest scam ever, paying to store 1 megabyte of data in some Amazon cloud server Nintend𐐬 bought for cheap

>>712868308
I think they mean across Generations since Gen 3. You can import all Pokemon bar the retarded "#Dexit" into all games from the third generation up to current. Hell, even RBYGSC via virtual console can import their Gen1-2 into Gen 10+ now.

>>712868260
Any save or system transfer function requires an online connection. Honestly he could probably ask Nintendo support if they have a backup of his saves since they actually do keep saves of Animal Crossing and Pokémon but they have to manually transfer with an explanation like your console broke or got stolen or something.

No his Pokémon would be saved if they were in Home. He kept his most precious Pokémon all in Scarlet and that game didn't transfer. It doesn't make any sense. You need Home to get Pokémon from 7 to 8 and 9 in the first place.

>>712867350 (OP)
lmao, paypiggies.

>>712870292
Nintendo is a tiny indie company who just started with their first console, the Switch 2. It's understandable they will have some growing pains

>>712870135
Because GameFreak is extremely terrified of allowing people to backup their Pokemon in any other way that's not their paywalled service because they don't want people to clone and "ruin trading", even when trading for rare Pokemon has been dead for decades at this point.

Personally, I had a living dex all the way to Gen 7, including stuff like every single Vivillon regional form, but I haven't paid for Home in almost 10 years, and by now I couldn't care less if my Pokemon get deleted because half of them can't even be used in the modern games. That and I have always hated the way they did events.

>>712870381
Actually do a system transfer on a Switch and see what it prompts you to do

>>712868018
Do you do that to Pokemon games? They are the only ones that let you transfer 20 years of progress to the next game. I would be confused if you spent that much time playing them and didn't transfer a single thing over.

>>712870659
It factory resets the Switch 1 if you opt to do a cloud transfer.
If you instead do a local wireless transfer during initial Switch 2 setup it does not factory reset your Switch 1.

>>712870240
This feature was removed with the Switch to sell their subscription.

I never understood pokemon hoarding
I always enjoyed repeating the campaigns and never thought twice about losing old monsters from previous playthroughs

>>712870748
so you can't even cloud transfer games that don't use the cloud. like pokemon.

20 years since Gen 3, 1000+ hours in Scarlet. He lost his data because of transfer data between Switch 1 to 2, but considering we're talking about a Pokemon, it's hard to know if GameFreak or Nintendo is to blame.

guess what?
again!

lmao

>>712870870
My guess is it's faster and easier. You click one button to "transfer all" instead of a short process to connect the two. I guarantee this person buys prebuilt pc's because "putting together a computer is too much of a hassle".

>Opt to not pay $16
What a retard, deserved.

>>712870240
No, Pokemon is EXTREMELY autistic about preventing save backups because they don't want you to have a way to potentially duplicate mons.

He probably had it on a copy of a physical cart, moved to Pokemon Home, and the transfer didn't complete

Nintendo, being small indie company, don't have the resources to bug check if it frees before use or not.

>>712870852
Correct.
>>712870870
I guess for the people selling their Switch 1 to purchase a Switch 2.
>>712870887
Not quite. Saves that don't support cloud backup are deleted from the Switch 1 when transferring locally to Switch 2.
It's conceivable that if the wireless transfer process is interrupted for whatever reason it could result in saves getting nuked.

None if this was made apparent anywhere. The only way to figure any of this bullshit out is by someone else's misfortune.

>>712871017
It's probably Nintendo. The same rules apply to Animal Crossing and people have reported Animal Crossing saves being fucked up when transferring from Switch to Switch OLED.

>>712869853
What the fuck is there to do in a pokemon game for a thousand hours

>>712870993
>>712871082
It's just so you can upload your switch's data to the cloud so you don't physically need it anymore before you get the switch 2. Only in theory of course though.

He didn't use Pokémon Home except to transfer Pokémon from Gen 7 under to 8 and 9. He did a system transfer from Switch to Switch 2 and only his Scarlet save didn't transfer over while all the other Pokémon games did. What it sounds like is he didn't pay for Pokémon Home and did the free tier and didn't keep any Pokémon in there.

Wrong. It does tell you some data could be lost, especially on profiles not linked to your main nintendo account.

that's a monthly subscription goy :^)

oh backups? we don't keep those.

>>712872698
>Wrong. It does tell you some data could be lost,
Literally no sane person would ever believe that "Some data could be lost" includes "All of your save data for pokemon and animal crossing".

In fact, every single console manufacturer wouldn't delete those saves at all. It's only Nintendo.

What kind of shitheel would think it's normal for a game to delete their saves

>>712872698
"Some data" isn't "your save files" you toothless tendoid. "some data" usually includes, on any sane console, your profile data and maybe metadata for console usage.
This is literally teh first time I have heard of a console saying "Some minor data could be lost don't think about it goy" but it includes save data for a video game.

I guess I got spoiled because literaly all of my consoles give me full cloud data with snapshots for free.

>>712867798

>>712872279
>Declining file transfer means deleting it

No wonder its cult is full of retarded manchildren

>>712872778
If you've ever transferred data from one switch 1 to another you would know that the data on the sender almost always gets copied, but for games like pokemon and animal crossing it usually gets deleted unless you use special transfer mechanisms.

He should have known to use the pokemon Home or animal crossing island mover.

Literally every switch user should know this. I have no sympathy for him.

NOT nintendo's fault.

>>712872573
>I miss Kalos
Chain fishing was fun, and the regional dex was acceptable. That's about it, but it was still a proper Pokemon game with the national dex, traditional EXP distribution, HMs, set battle style, etc.
>I also miss G7
The characters and locales were enjoyable and memorable. The regional dex was pretty good.
But yes, definitely less repayable due to all the cutscenes and dialogue. Cutting HMs really did a number on the level design as well.

Again, not well designed games. But there's still good aspects which cannot be said for anything on the Switch.

>>712872959
>If you've ever transferred data from one switch 1 to another you would know that the data on the sender almost always gets copied, but for games like pokemon and animal crossing it usually gets deleted unless you use special transfer mechanisms.
Why?
Also, how is that not Nintendo's fault? Pokemon and Animal Crossing are two of their biggest games. They could at least offer emergency cloud storage for something like this.

>>712872959
>>712872698
>S-SHUT UP NOT NINTENDO'S FAULT
Not offering cloud saves 15 years after my Xbox 360 did it isn't Nintendo's fault, huh tendie?

>>712873038
cloud storage isn't possible for games that aren't tied to a user profile.

pokemon and animal crossing usually have game save mechanisms that are global and not tied to user profiles, so your nintendo online subscription WONT automatically backup your game files.

every switch user should know this and be aware that transferring data is dangerous.

>>712873241
but for pokemon and animal crossing the gamesave data isn't tied to an individual user profile, so his nintendo online subscription service, which offers cloud game saves, won't work with them.

the game needs to save the data to your nintendo-linked account and you need to have a nintendo online subscription in order to have cloud game saves.

pokemon and animal crossing don't do this, so you can't back them up.

the only way to safely transfer save data is with the pokemon home and animal crossing island mover.

this literally is NOT nintendo's fault.

Are you telling me that Pokemon, the game that at LEAST 60% of the people will get a Nintendo Switch 2 for, isn't tied to user profiles and has no connection to Pokemon Home, and doesn't save backups of any kind related to Switch's cloud storage?


No no no no no no no no, stop your dicklicking for ten seconds. Please tell me pokemon fags don't pay a monthly subscription service to a cloud storage solution that isn't integrated to their own console's cloud storage system, right? You're some guy making a joke. Surely, no company would do that to their customers.

>>712867703
Stop telling other people how to enjoy things, you joyless wretch.

>>712873424
>but for pokemon and animal crossing the gamesave data isn't tied to an individual user profile, so his nintendo online subscription service, which offers cloud game saves, won't work with them.
Ok why does literally all of my consoles save third party game data then

>>712873424
Even then, why delete Pokemon and AC saves at all? Just don't touch what you can't transfer. Open a prompt saying you need X and Y for these specific games.

>>712867350 (OP)
If you do a system transfer, it transfers over all your associated save data. Fake and gay.

>>712873424
>the game needs to save the data to your nintendo-linked account and you need to have a nintendo online subscription in order to have cloud game saves.
I get this shit for free and I don't pay a cent to my console's online service.
And even if theoretically I didn't, it wouldn't just *delete all of my saves* if it couldn't make a cloud backup.
You really put up with this shit?

>>712873497
The extra features make it more than worth it, the Wonder Box alone is enough to justify the cost for me.

>>712873382
How does anyone complain about game cards? It’s literally the same as every other company except you can use them on several consoles, making it so you can sell games physically and still own them digitally.

>>712873673
Until 2035 when the Switch 2 servers go down and they become a piece of plastic, maybe.

>Switch 2 out for delivery.
>Start cloud backup Switch 1.
>Switch 1 factory resets.
>Transfer restore on Switch 2.
>Pokemon Scarlet, Sword, Arceus, B Diamond, Let's Go Pikachu saves work.
>Pokemon Home transferred and maintained my Login Status so didn't even have to sigh in again.

What did the Redditor do to fuck up?

>>712873424
tbf I don't actually believe you and think you're some guy trolling because I find it hard to believe nintendo's online cloud saves wouldn't include their two most popular games and would, in fact, immediately delete your saves with no indication that it's going to do that if you press "No" at a prompt one time.

You would be better off, and at least make Nintendo not look like a retarded company browsed by braindead losers, if you just said that it was a bug and Nintendo is working on it. I suddenly no longer think Xbox is the worst gaming company.

>>712873656
NTA but what features, it doesn't save your fucking save data. The point of cloud saves is to cloud save and it doesn't do it.

>>712873549
There's probably downsides for that too, nintendo obviously does it this way for a reason.

>>712873560
I'm assuming it's a safety feature, it probably prevents exploits like item-duplication cheats and things like that.

>>712873638
Every switch owner should already know about this, and he clearly didn't read the prompt or fine print.

>>712867350 (OP)
KEKY!

>>712873656
>The extra features
WHAT FEATURES? The only reason to use Pokemon Bank was because it saved your teams. But if your team can be deleted by error with no way to recover it, what's the fucking point?

>>712867350 (OP)
Nintendo is such a scumbag company. Why the fuck do they care about duplicate save file. Pokemon is barely a competitive game anyway.

>>712873808
It's not nintendo's fault though, they should blame pokemon and animal crossing for not following the save game format that everyone else uses.

I think its a dumb system too but it's not nintendo's fault.

>>712873867
>There's probably downsides for that too, nintendo obviously does it this way for a reason.
They really don't, at least not a good reason.
There are no downsides to saving third party save data, it takes less than a few kilobytes per save file, and this is on huge games.
this is why Microsoft gives it out for free.

>>712873867
>Every switch owner should already know about this, and he clearly didn't read the prompt or fine print.
Can you point to the manual where it says "Don't press 'no' or it'll delete your pokemon and animal crossing save files" because I bet you can't, I bet it doesn't say that, and I bet nobody else thinks that's normal except for you.

>>712873954
>>712873867
>toxoplasmosis fag
ok I get why you think this way, now.

Meh

>>712868998
isnt the same with sonic?

>>712873954
>it's not nintendo's fault though,
It absolutely is, and would be even if this was third party save data because they're the only ones who don't do that.
>they should blame pokemon and animal crossing
They own these games.

>>712873954

So.. nintendo should blame nintendo?
I guess it is their fault.

No
Pokefags unironically believe pokemon is good while sonicfags are concient most 3d sonic games are shit

The guy avatarfagging with cat pics is obviously talking out of his ass.
First of all, Home only stores your Pokemon, it doesn't store a game's save file, it would have still been lost even if the redditor had saved his Pokemon. Less severe but still very annoying.
Secondly, it's clearly a glitch affecting all non-save cloud since it doesn't happen universally. It's not something you just read up on because it's clearly not intentional. Some people report only a few of those games affected, or all or none. Nintendo just didn't test this properly.

>>712874128
Noone plays sonic games bro. It's like 2hu.

>>712872660
This is the one thing that irritates me about any multiplayer game.
Everyone is expected to cheat, and you can't succeed unless you cheat. And yet, everyone lies about it.
I would wager that an EXTREME majority of competetively viable Pokemon are hacked in. Like, 90+%
So, it begs the question of why the fuck you should even be playing the game at all when it's all smoke, mirrors, and scams.

Dude there are 100% illegal pokeball-pokemon combinations in every big tournament and noone gives a shit.

>>712873767
how did you cloud backup pokemon game saves when you can't back them up in the cloud?

>>712874454
>First of all, Home only stores your Pokemon, it doesn't store a game's save file, it would have still been lost even if the redditor had saved his Pokemon. Less severe but still very annoying.
Why not?
I just don't get it, why would this ever be a problem on a modern console? Cloud saves are to put save files in the cloud. If it just saves your team, what's functionally the difference between hacking the pokemon in and using a paid service? Because it's 'official'?

>Secondly, it's clearly a glitch affecting all non-save cloud since it doesn't happen universally. It's not something you just read up on because it's clearly not intentional. Some people report only a few of those games affected, or all or none. Nintendo just didn't test this properly.
See I can at least understand that. It's a mistake and they'll fix it, but it's still baffling it's a situation that can happen at all.

>>712874454
>>712874557
It's looking to me like the Switch 2 was a smash and grab heist...

>>712874557
Any other 1st party games with issues besides Pikmin 3?

>>712867350 (OP)
So how do I prevent this? This is the exact shit im petrified of since I'm a fucking loser who shiny hunts marked Pokemon for hours on end.

I don't have a hacked switch.

Do I just throw all my valuable Pokemon in Home and THEN transfer?

>>712874632
>Why not?
Because Game Freak is literally retarded and hates the idea of people having multiple saves so they can clone Pokémon. That's ALL there's to it. It's as stupid as it sounds, I'm not joking.

>>712873424
I'm not a member of NSO. I did my full Switch 1 cloud backup. Scarlet, Brilliant Diamond, Legends Arceus , Let's Go Pikachu, and Home saves (including Home's login) all worked. I didn't get any special notifications while doing this, it didn't say "WARNING YOU MUST BE A PAYING CUSTOMER". It gives you one full year from the backup date to pick up the restore on any Switch 2. Pokemon Home doesn't backup save files you mongoloid. I don't pay for Home either.

I fucking hate this third world internet, third world South America, third world Indians, turd world Southeast Asia, 3rd world Eastern Europe. Turd. World. Zoomers.

What the fuck are you talking about? You do the full cloud backup, let the Switch 1 factory reset and dump that unit. You don't need to pay for any of this. Genuinely bad advice to tell people to use Home. People want their save files too. Animal Crossing also fully moves without any island app if you do the cloud system backup to Switch 2.

>>712874616
Tell me more.

>>712868678
Well that's small time. If I do that, I'd easily have 10000+ hours.

>>712874624
Do you have a Switch 1? System options. Transfer to Switch 2. Select don't have a Switch 2. Cloud backup the entire console, not hard.

>>712874845
>You do the full cloud backup, let the Switch 1 factory reset
Why does the Switch 1 NEED to be reset to factory settings after transferring the save file?

>>712871280
Making a competitive team in Pokemon takes 8 hours in SV (the game with the fastest team building methods in the entire series).
Said 8 hours doesn’t include all the items you had to grind either and assumes you are RNG manipulating too.

No surprise breedcuck is also a tranny too

>>712867350 (OP)
I understand this to an extent. I was upgrading my sd card on my switch and used nso to upload my animal crossing save. Confirmed it was there and backed up properly. Put the new sd card went through the process and wouldn't you know the ac save file was deleted online. Fuck jewtendo for being incompetent fucks.

>>712874808
Probably. I would probably also have cloud saves enabled anyways even if that doesn't let you transfer over Pokémon and Animal Crossing. If anything goes wrong immediately contact Nintendo support and explain to it that your save didn't transfer over as a last resort and see if they have a backup.

>>712874845
okay this at least gives me some hope that Nintendo isn't full retarded and did, in fact, provide some contingency for their customers.
still, not backing up all save files seems ridiculous. Even as an emergency thing, it should back up your saves, not just your team. My emulator does it for free if I just point it to a drive.

what even is this logic

>>712874845
>I fucking hate this third world internet, third world South America, third world Indians, turd world Southeast Asia, 3rd world Eastern Europe. Turd. World. Zoomers.
Apparently having working cloud saves, something every console since the PS3 days have had, is exclusively a third world thing, now. And proud white men are happy to lose hundreds of hours of progress because a paid server doesn't back it up.

How are Home Pokemon stored anyways? Is that on Nintendos side?

So even if my Switch inexplicably exploded, would my mind be safe so long as they're in Home?

>>712875025
Why wouldn't you just copy and paste your old SD card data into the new one wholesale. Did you just toss the old SD card? The Nintendo folder contains all your game data and saves.

I hate feeding the turd world so much. Southeast Asia, South America, India, Eastern Europe thirdies. This screen confuses their brains.

>>712874403

Only losers without a home and a lawn to take care of, living in a grubby studio apartment where they have no grass and never see grass, ever tells someone else they need to touch it.

>>712875168
This confuses and enrages the 3rd world. Selecting either options fully transfers everything. No need to pay.

>>712874894
Search VGC aegislash ball or something like that on the archive for what was the most viral, so to say, case.

>>712873328
What do you own?

>>712875168
I get that, why isn't there also an option that says "Back up this save file" or "Copy this save file to memory".

Because the Xbox had it.. 14 years ago on the Xbox 360. Why is transferring wholesale to a Switch 2 your only option for save backups and cloud saves?

Why exactly is it so white and trad to have less features than consoles from two generations ago?

>>712875343
Not 1,000 hour save files and 20 years worth of Pokemon!!

>>712868998
Literally me but with Total Warhammer 3 and WHF lore

>>712875154
It's online, not on the console. It's absurd enough you have to pay a subscription for what is at best a few megabytes of storage, but it would just be downright retarded if that storage was on your own device.

>>712875154
Probably Pokémon Company side. Nintendo doesn't require you to use a Nintendo account with Home but strongly recommends it. But Nintendo doesn't manage Go and Go is compatible with Home. It's actually interesting to see what Pokémon mobile games you can link with Nintendo or not.

Please mods ban third world IPs. Start with Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia.

>>712874232
That's the only interesting way to watch someone play. Pokemon games are tha shallow.

>>712871280
You could shill, forget about goals and just walk around finding pokemon in grass or doing minigames for at least 40 hours.

>>712875168
>>712875439
There IS a way to backup save data to physical without needing a whole Switch 2, right? Here is that function on the PS3.. 15 years ago. It could even be saved to thumb drives directly.

Don't tell me you're so trad and white that you bought a console that doesn't let you save your backups physically any way you want.

What's the point in cheating at this point when bottle caps, mints and candy is so fucking abundant? Catch whatever shit you need, stuff it with candy, a mint, drugs and hit the hypertraining and you're done in a few minutes.

>>712875676
To be fair japan is so stuck in the past that the guy that programmed the save transfer doesn't even know what a checksum is or how to use it

>>712875439
>>712875168
>>712875273
So you can't transfer your saves physically or back them up even though they can share SD cards? Are you fucking for real right now? you're calling other people turd worlders but you're saying this is normal?

>>712867350 (OP)
Deserved it, that's what you get for being a fucking bootlicker

>>712875510

Some games they don't want you to use the cloud, like Pokemon because of cheating.

>>712875564
The fag redditor who this story is about deleted his post so I don't know what he did wrong or if what he did could be replicated or not

>>712875751

This would be a fair point if people didn't pay for the home service.

Okay go get me a 0 speed IV Enamorus real quick if it's so easy

>>712875701
Pretty much the only thing they need to add is a 0 IV bottle cap then there's literally no more excuse. Super spergs can't feel secure without than 0 speed or 0 attack on special attackers.

>>712875618
There is no way to back up game save data other than using the nintendo online subscription service. Any other method is not allowed.

It's really not a problem.

>>712875725
That would be real sad considering even Poketto Monsuta Midori had them.

>>712875751
>Some games they don't want you to use the cloud
Xbox and PS3 has games like that too. Particularly games where you can cheat items in like Souls games
They still let you do it for contingency. You can't just roll your save back anytime but if you get fucked by a bad file transfer, the save is still in the cloud

>>712875892
The 0 speed thing is valid for things like trick room and shit, since since even exactly one point being off makes all the difference when it comes to speed.

>>712875914
>There is no way to back up game save data other than using the nintendo online subscription service

that's what i told them, you have to do the FULL SYSTEM TRANSFER and if you don't you will have problems.

at least read my posts before tryin to insult me.

all i said is its NOT nintendo's fault for any user error that results in save game loss.

people can use pokemon HOME or animal crossing island mover if they want to try and be safe

NTA but the switch doesn't just delete your saves if you say no, THO
This is clearly a bug/glitch and unintentional.

>>712875701
Making a team still takes 8 hours to do and that’s not accounting for having done several hours of MMO grinding shit before hand or needing to understand a college course of information to teambuilding in a children’s game.
All that just to do what is essentially selecting a character(s) with some variants. Imagine needing to spend an entire fucking week just so you could select the characters you wanted in MvC2.

>>712871797
>There is but you need to pay $50 per year

I was going to correct you and say it's 20 a year but then realized most tendies are paying 50 so they can get those shitty n64 and gamecube emulators.

>>712874894
One of the things is the pros will use some sort of calculator that will sometimes come up with impossible statlines and just roll with it. Nintendo most of the time isn't going to simulate a Magmar trading up 5 games just to see if combo/stats are possible and probably use the calculator itself. There was some drama awhile ago where someone actually used a legit pokemon but because the calculator said it was impossible they got bullied/banned for a few years.

A good video to start with is this if you are interested enough.

Trvth Nvke:No one, not even the compfags, cares about breeding in Pokémon. Casuals REALLY don't care, and the compfags only care about the battles. You don't see fighting game or MOBA players preping their characters before a competition, no?
So I ask: why does this still exist? Why would someone care about cloning or save scumming? Seriously, Game Freak is the only one who cares about this outdated mechanic.

>>712876820
i love how IGN completely omits this was a used error.

>>712876517
>why does this still exist?
Three reasons.
A. Tradition. It’s been a mechanic since Gen 2, and removing it would be like removing Gyms. Which is to say fans would be irrationally upset but still buy the game because they are slaves.
B. GameFreak can’t just spoil their fanbase like that! They got to keep Pokemon fan’s expectations low. If they got a taste of a character select that doesn’t take several fucking hours of MMO grinding and luck and understanding 50 Wiki pages of information, well then they might start asking for games that look 10 years behind instead of 20!
C. It’s so they can add p2w Pokemon. You got version exclusives, spin-off exclusives, and DLC Pokemon, which means that they have to buy 2 consoles, both versions of the same game, 2 versions of the same DLC, and spin-offs.
Now imagine instead of having to pay roughly over $1,000 of hardware and software just to get 1 digital character, you could just spawn it in.

>>712877040
>>712876820
Nintendo shouldn't allow this anyway, that's silly.

>>712877168
Only games with extreme autism are like this like animal crossing and pokemon. The developers that decide this shit.

>>712875806
Surely this isn't a thing. I mean if you're hitting yourself in confusion you've got a lot more to worry about than a few points difference in confusion damage.

Shit like this baffles me that people would still basedface over console gaming instead of moving on to PC gaming. USD 3k for a good PC that can last for 7 years+ is nothing. I live in a turd world country, where PC components are like 4 - 5x more expensive, and can still afford an RTX4090.

>>712867572
yes, but Nintendo should rightfully be called out for their stupid/cumbersome way of doing shit

>>712867350 (OP)
Worked on my machine. How could you possibly fuck up the transfer?

>>712877436
You will never get to emulate Switch 2 games, pcvegan

You could forcefully sodomize Nintendo fans with a sandpaper dildo at this point and they'd cheer for it as long as it was priced at a premium and were assured that Playstation and Steam fans were barred from the experience.

>>712877498
iF it was even a transfer. I think he just logged in with his account and thought he could restore his save backups from the cloud. Of course you can't with animal crossing and pokemon.

>>712877498
IGN omitted the full details because we live in the ADHD internet of accelerated race to the bottom. He likely didn't do the system full transfer.

>>712875160
Pretty sure it required to reformat whenever you put a new sd card in. Idr and havent really used it much since but regardless if you back up a save into the cloud it should actually backup. Nintendo is so hilariously out dated.

>>712876158
>but because the calculator said it was impossible they got bullied/banned for a few years.
What pokemon was it? Because that magmar was 100% hacked, I guess.

>>712877498
How the fuck can the transfer process delete the file in the first place? Usually the file will be backed up first before being transferred.

>>712871686
not all games support cloud saves or some shit like you can't cloud save animal crossing because they don't want people cheating by having duplicate towns or some bullshit same for pokemon I think

>>712877603
I can kinda get the competitive paranoia for Pokémon, but why on god's green earth were they such miserable assholes about Animal Crossing save data too? Forcing all accounts on a system to share the same island was also fucking needlessly retarded.

No idea anon. I get it but it's all pointless paranoia. Xenoblade 2 save after every gacha pull and has one save file but you can still backup your save and cheat using the cloud backup to try to pull rare blades again. But animal crossing and pokemon has this autism for some reason.

>>712868772
considering it didn't happen to most people i have to come to the conclusion he fucked something up when he did the transfer. never underestimate user's ability to screw up and then blame the system for their inability to follow simple instructions.

That's stupid as fuck.

Nintendo not doing "ok, we'll skip this" like every fucking Operating System in the known world will do on data migration?

He is a retard, retards deserve to suffer

>>712874505
I don't understand, what is the difference between the proper mon through hacking vs having to spend 100s of hours of grinding?

The end result is the same. If anything they should make seperate categories where they actually check in one. Then the autists will be curved out because not that many people will want to play that way.

Cloud saves are universally free on these consoles. Even if you don't pay for PSN and Xbox live. Universal cloud saves is better PR for them than not having it
But its' great seeing tendies so mindbroken that they can't conceive anyone else getting those for free

>Majority of people were able to get their pokemon saves transferred to the switch 2
>a small few reddit users fucked up and lost their save files
Reddit moment

>>712872279
I chose not to do a full system transfer and just manually moved my pokemon violet save from switch to switch 2 locally so this is a lie, nothing was deleted by choosing not to do a system transfer

>>712879547
Why does nintendo's dogshit online service let these saves get lost when every one of nintendo's competitors has 2-3 layers of protection against cloud save losses

why is this acceptable to you and why is it their fault that nintendo cheaped out on making decent cloud saves

>>712867350 (OP)
>only 1k hours
Wow, it's fucking nothing.

>>712879523
>Cloud saves are universally free on these consoles. Even if you don't pay for PSN and Xbox live
that's just a lie though, PS plus is required to use cloud saves.

Wait so, do I just throw my Pokemon in Home before the transfer???

>>712879634
bro went in and deleted the save himself, there's nothing involved in "nintendo's online" that did it.

>>712879717
if you want to be extra safe in case you somehow fuck it up somehow sure, it wouldn't hurt

>>712879426
There's no difference, there's no way to tell from the mon alone. They'd have to ask for video proof of you grinding the mon, or go full cloud save only.

>>712879717
It's that simple.

It's what I did and everything was right where I left it.

>>712880001
Wait, how do I sign back into Home, again? Will it be autosigned in upon transfer? I can't even remember how to sign into Home...

>>712880105
So nothing happened?

>>712880490
it just works off of your nintendo account

>>712878992
Oh, but imagine if an old save became an entry point to an exploit? Gotta nuke the gaijin's files on both ends just to make sure.

>>712875175
stop assigning chris-chan as a sonic problem. He was a normal kid when he had a genesis, he only became a freak because of gamecube pokemon, fire emblem and animal crossing

>>712879426
It's cheating.
That should be absolutely simple to understand.
You're using cheat codes to skip playing the game entirely, and the entire Pokemon competitive scene is built off the back of third-party scam artists.
>It's the same!
No, it's fucking gay and it sucks. Nobody who wins those faggy tournaments can take pride in their accomplishments, because they didn't accomplish anything.

>>712880641
There would be a gorillion articles about other people with this issue and he'd have no incentive to delete his post then disappear if it were real. Chances are >>712879227 happened and he needed some kind of validation/sympathy for his retardation.

>>712880251
i have about 25k hours in a game called ultima online

i've been playing regularly since 1997

>>712881213
The tournament is about outdoing other players through tactics and resource usage at the time of tournament.

The only way it'd be cheating is if they bugged their pp or items or some other hack that gave them an advantage at the time of the fight.

The tournament isn't a test of who spent the most time grinding for rng

Does it give an advantage in combat?

>>712873673
Literally the worse of both worlds. You don't have the convenience of physical - having to download the game and occupy space on your disk, or the convenience of digital - not having to insert a card and just boot up the game.

>>712882710

>1,000 hours over 20 years
That's not very much.

>>712871280
I probably have a collective 1000 hours over all the gen 4 games from trying to complete the pokedexes as a kid.
I didn't have an action replay or whatever, so I did just manually exp share grind pokemon between commercial breaks
I also remember doing a hell of a lot of berry farming and pokemon contests too.
The older games definitely had a lot of context to keep a dumb kid busy.

>>712881043
i dont really know chris-chan like i didnt even knew about his lolcow origins
but its impossible to not relate sonic with him when he literally made a sonic OC and comics with sonic characters

Hive Queen post

So what? I once got my memory card wiped out:
- 350+ hours Smash Bros Melee save
- 100% F-Zero GX completion
- 100% Timesplitters 2 completion
- All three Eternal Darkness endings
- 120 shines
- Ikaruga S++ rankings
- 100+ hours of Pool Paradise

Did I cry about it? No. I just sat for 5 min in silence and moved on with my fucking life, not running off online immediately like some faggot.

>>712889595
Fuck off, you backwards tendie faggot. This shit should not exist in the era of cloud saved data. If this was on Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox then this would not have happened since you can automatically or manually upload your save data and never lose it.

>>712891875
>If this was on Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox then this would not have happened
And yet it happens all the time on those platforms, especially PlayStation.
Funnily enough it rarely happens for Nintendo.

what does it being wireless have to do with a copy operation deleting files?
unless the guy did the transfer and then manually deleted data from his old device

>>712874128
Sonicfags are at least aware that most of his games suck.

>>712897105
As if. There's a defence force for 06 now.

>>712896473
The thing is, he didn't do a system transfer and tried to conjure up some kind of failure scenario instead of owning up to his incompetence. If you read the guys other comments in the reddit thread, he doesn't even describe how it works properly. There are 2 ways to do the transfer
>All your saves are copied to the ninty servers and the switch 1 is factory reset. You then download it on the switch 2 during setup.
>You transfer locally, copying your saves from the switch 1 to the switch 2. Animal Crossing and Pokemon saves are deleted on switch 1, but your other saves exist on both systems.

>>712867572
True, they were doing him a favor. Perfect chance to stop being tendie cattle>>712867572

>>712868772
I wish people would stop buying consoles on launch but here we are.
Gamefreak especially deserves no support so maybe this pokesimp retard will stop giving them money

>devise unreliable transfer method
>refuse to let anyone make real backups because of anti save-scum autism
>"no you just need comically overpriced cloud storage"

Yeah no fuck Nintendo. Their system transfers have always been total garbage. Right from the start with the Wii to Wii U transfers shit would just fuck up and lose all your data constantly.

>>712898330
And yet it doesn't happen as often as it does on other platforms.

Hacked switches don't have this problem. I can just backup my saves whenever I want and transfer them to my computer without relying on shitty cloud services

>This system transfer method is recommended if you will not have your Nintendo Switch console when you get your Nintendo Switch 2 console, like if you're trading in, selling, or giving away your previous console. Otherwise, a local communication system transfer is preferred.

>>712867350 (OP)
But that's just for the scarlet save file no? Unless importing a save from older games erased the old one.

>>712867350 (OP)

I already lost all my pokemon with 3ds bank thing because I didn't pay their subscription after the initial period and all my shit got deleted so I learned that lesson early on
Had some cool stuff there too, bred full IV shinies and some event pokemon and whatnot
these systems are completely worthless, just use them to do the transfers and don't rely on them for anything else, dump your saves and archive that instead, there's a million tools for that nowadays
