How to Delete your Pokemon GO Account
Before deleting your Pokemon GO account, ensure you have the game installed on your device. If you uninstalled it previously, you’d have to quickly get it back so you can access the in-game settings menu. Once you do, launch the game and take the following steps:
Be careful if you’re linked to Niantic Wayfarer, though! If you are, you’ll lose access to Wayfarer completely alongside your Pokemon GO account.
Alternate Method
If the method above doesn’t work, you can contact theofficial Pokemon GO Help Centerand create a ticket through its form. You’ll have to enter your username and email before choosing “Delete My Account” under Issue Category. From here, Niantic’s support staff can help you delete your account.
Regardless of how you go through with deleting your account, ensure you’re certain you want it gone. There is no way to undo this, and once it’s done, it’s truly done. Only delete your account if you know that you won’t want to return to it later.
Pokemon GO is available on Android and iOS devices.
