Hi,

I deposited 505 ada to create a stake pool since that is the initial deposit, however I have a change of mind and I want to withdraw it. How can I do this?

The coincashew guide has good instructions on how to retire your pool.

The problem is I wasn’t able to register my pool.  
so retiring pool is not feasible?

Check your staking address on [https://explorer.cardano.org/](https://explorer.cardano.org/) and see if the deposit transaction is showing there. If you have successfully deposited the 500 ada there should be a transaction with the “Deposit” showing.

If you have deposited the 500 ada the only way to get it back is to retire the stake pool (dereg).

Or is this a question of how to just get the 505 back off the wallet that you generated?

Then generate a transaction from that wallet you created back to your yoroi wallet. You’ll need to follow the cardano-cli instructions for generating that transaction. I’m not too good on the cli side of things.

fyi, the pool fee is returned to your stake/rewards addr and make sure you are fully sync’d to the chain before building/executing your transaction
