Reset flash drive - eviltoast

I’ve been messing with my flash drives trying to follow some random documentation with dd and now both of my flash drives are reporting 0 bytes of free space. I was trying to clear out everything and start from scratch as if they were new. I wonder if there are any program out there that can just sudo reset-everything /dev/sdX

    $sudo sgdisk --zap-all /dev/SD{x}

    $sudo wipefs -a /dev/SD{x}

    The first wipes any existing partitions or data that exist.

    The second wipes any data in the table headers if anything is left?

    Those have worked for most times I needed it
