Good game, great sales. The "movement" had no impact.

???

Previous 3 new gen titles:

Pokemon Black & White - 2.64m
Pokemon X & Y - 2.1m
Pokemon Sun & Moon - 1.9m

How can you say "No impact."

Regardless, even if sales had been amazing, without the "movement" as you call it, sales might have been even higher. 

It seems like Pokemom is on a decline despite having a bigger or lesser hardware sales. We will never know how much sales were lost because of the many issues the game have. It could be as big as 300k or less than 50k.
