How can you tell what hype the game is getting? That would be just pure anecdotal evidence. Whether the game is the best Pokemon since the original 2 is just a matter of opinion - in this case, your opinion.
There is literally nothing that points to it besting the previous DS Pokemon games, let alone GTAV.
Also, how do you explain the low preorder numbers from VGChartz? Surely they can't off by 200% or more.

im not comparing it to gta5, how can you say its going to decline? Where is your proof? I play/understand pokemon. My prediction is much more accurate (no offense). Also why are we comparing it more towards BW? Diamond/Pearl is a better comparison. Ask any pokemon fan and they tell you why. But i guess i'll just explain it. BW had 50mil User Base vs 3DS 9mil user base. Of course pre orders are higher. Diamond/Pearl is the first new generation to come outband within 3 years of DS Life. Your pre order statement isn't a fair comparison. Thats like if Assassin Creed 4 pre orders on X1/PS4 are suppose to be close to that of Assassin Creed 3 pre orders on PS3/X360.
