How to reset pokewalker

No, you need a Nintendo DS, DS lite, DSi or 3DS along with a Pokemon Soul Silver or Heart Gold game. You can contact/request that the seller put a Pokemon in the Pokewalker before buying it and then it can work as a standalone pedometer. … You must have either Heart Gold or Soul Silver Pokémon games to use it.

At the Pokewalker connection screen, you must hold Down , X , and L on the DS. This is a necessary step so that you cannot clone Pokemon. After that, you should be able to connect a new Pokewalker.

Note: it appears that 3DS devices and beyond have a hard time connecting to Pokewalkers. You will likely need to do this on a DS or DS Lite device.

On the Pokéwalker menu, hold Down + X + L at the same time. When prompted, choose Connect on the Pokéwalker to erase the game data.

Press and hold Down on the D-Pad, X, and the L Button all together. The game will now caution you that you are erasing the Pokéwalker, and all other data will be lost. Select Yes to proceed. Now select Erase Pokéwalker Records, and then when prompted select Connect on the Pokéwalker to complete the process.
