Intro

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet keep a secret backup save, even if autosave is turned off -- here's how to access it.

Step 1.

Shut down the game completely, (close software), then reopen

Step 2.

When you reach the Title Screen,  press UP + X + B at the same time

If you did this correctly, you will now see a screen that shows the details of your backup save with the option “Load Backup Save File” shown in the bottom right.

Note: The backup save will overwrite the original save the next time you save the game.
