That is correct. 

Using the rankings to work out unit sales, without factoring in which games are priced lower or have been discounted, can give an inaccurate view of the market. 

Not to mention that some games include digital sales in the rankings whilst others do not. 

So wait...they noted Pokemon doesn't include digital sales and it has been priced lower than CoD for most of the month...doesn't that mean it being above CoD according to NPD actually means it beat it rather badly in terms of straight up sales?

The NPD PR does not note whether combined sales of Pokemon Sun and Moon are higher than that of Call of Duty on a unit or revenue basis. 

So I couldn't possibly say.
