Soft Reset is that you press the buttons L R START and SELECT to reset the DS to restart the game. Soft Reset is mainly used to obtain Shiny Legendaries although it takes a lot of time to do it.

Hope this helps...

Thanks. I knew how to restart the game this way but I didnt knew its called Soft Reset.
This works for any game, not just Pokemon.

Also, the soft reset for Gameboy Advance is:
A B Start Select.
So does it reset the entire game?
Yes Ask, it does.
It restarts it up to one of the points when they are showing the company logos that developed this game.
