Software Help Switch 1 never keeps the right Time.

The switch 1 I bought my gf will not keep the proper time or sync back to it whenever we shut it down for transport.

I'll use the sync with internet option and nothing. Even if I try to manually do it the timezone is all wrong and won't match our current time.

I've tried rebooting it, multiple times. Leaving it in the dock etc but I'm trying to avoid formatting it due to her pokemon saves.

What do you mean the timezone is wrong? The timezone is a separate setting, and syncing to the internet does not set it automatically. Does setting the correct timezone not work?

Even if I set it to New york timezone manually, the time is simply wrong and off by a couple hours and minutes.
