They're not losing much of anything like most of you guys are acting like they would by releasing one version instead of two. The amount of people who buy both are extremely small and niche and only the most diehard fans. Most people buy one or the other. The whole point is to trade, and ever since online and the GTS became a thing, any reason to have both pretty much went out the window. The game will sell 15m+ worldwide just like all the past main Pokemon games, whether or not they release one or two versions. They probably still will release two though, because of the whole trading aspect.
