What does the error code “drowned” mean when trying to login into a minecraft account

Hi Ree J,

Thanks for posting your question here. The "drowned" error happens when a saved login information on your Nintendo Switch is corrupted or fallen out of sync in the server. Please follow this to fix it:

First, clear the saved account sign‑in data in Minecraft’s Profile settings, restart the game, and sign in again using the code at aka.ms/remoteconnect. Fully power off the Switch, wait one minute, then turn it back on; also update Minecraft through the software menu, test your internet connection to ensure a good NAT type, reset your Microsoft password if needed, and verify Xbox Live service status.

Let me know if you have questions, I am here to help.
