To be fair if Pokemon Switch launched this year it would probably have a better attach rate in Japan than Splatoon 

I am not sure, I can see that even Pokemon has attach rate bigger than around 70%, also Splatoon on Wii U has one of best attach rates ever, Splatoon popularity is huge in Japan maybe even bigger than for Pokemon.

There's nothing to "not be sure" about. Even if Splatoon 2 sells more than any recent pokemon game in Japan, it would be more reliant on legs than Pokemon since Pokemon had an even bigger establishes fanbase. Basically, 7 months in it would be nearly impossible for Splatoon 2 to have a bigger attach rate in Japan than Pokemon theoretically would, lifetime sales would be a different argument entirely.
