Pokemon GO has become a global phenomenon, and players of all ages enjoy the game.

With that being said, some players will want to permanently delete their account at some point.

There are two facts to keep in mind when someone wants to delete their Pokemon GO account. First of all, permanent deletion of an account is irreversible. Secondly, players will not be able to use the same email address or username if they decide to create a new account in the future.
