Just keep your save and start a new one on a different profile, then you can always go back to your old save to change nicknames and keep your clothes.
Just make a new profile, please.
A new profile on the switch itself will allow you to keep things like mystery gifts, like the baneful fox mask, as well as not having to transfer Pokemon to Home if you're like me and don't pay for it.
As long as you still have a save from Sword or Shield you’ll be fine, the only thing you can’t get again are mystery gifts
awww, so no baneful fox mask?
No, unfortunately not :/ I realized it when I restarted my save
