I feel like an idiot asking this question because I've been playing for 7 years.
(often shortened as SRing) is a feature found in the main series Pokémon games, with the exception of Pokémon Colosseum. It involves pressing certain buttons on the game system to reload the game from the startup screen. The term "Soft reset" is to differentiate from a "hard reset", which is restarting the game by powering down the console and then turning it back on again. Source I love Weird things ¯(°_o)/¯
