How To Transfer Data & Saves - Switch & Mobile
What You Need First
- Nintendo Switch with a Pokemon Unite account
- Mobile Phone (iOS or Android)
- Nintendo Account or Pokemon Trainer Club account
- Internet connection
In order to seamlessly transfer data from your Nintendo Switch to you mobile phone or vice-versa, you need to have the above ready. As you need to link both of the devices together, having the username and the passwords memorized can make this process faster and smoother.
Transfer Is Between Accounts
If you have a Nintendo Account, use that account for both your mobile and your Nintendo Switch to transfer your saves. A Pokemon Trainer Club account works the same way. These are the only 2 accounts that can be used to transfer save data.

Why Transfer Your Data?

Should one of your devices fail, you still have the option to continue playing without worrying about your save data. Make progress on one device and you can immediately continue with another device. Note that you have to use either a Nintendo Account or Pokemon Trainer Club to enjoy this benefit.
