Pokémon Sun/Moon had a day one shipment of 10mil. Pokémon S/V sold 10mil in the first 3 days and they said it was the biggest opening of a Nintendo game ever.

3 things.

1. Pokemon Sun/Moon had -day 1 shipments of 10m.

2. Pokemon S/V was the biggest number at day 3. But Pokemon Sun/Moon didn't launch globally (in Europe) until day 6. So technically if they write their PR in a way to ignore the global sales/shipments of Europe, they would be correct. S/V > Sun/Moon.

3. They specifically state it is the biggest Globally AND domestically. Now this is key because Pokemon Sun and Moon did quite poorly in Japan comparatively, with only 1.591m sales reported by media create, which is worse than Pokemon X and Y. So again their PR is correct. S/V> Sun/Moon.

So if Pokemon S/V sold 10m = shipped, they would still be correct with their PR.
