There seems to be some conflicting sources on which of each version pair is the better seller. Does anyone have official data?

Here are my thoughts:

  • Red vs. Blue - In the United States, Blue was the better seller, however, not sure about worldwide. Also in Japan what we know as Blue was known as Green there, while Blue was a limited edition there. I believe that Red outsold both Green and Blue in Japan.
  • Gold vs. Silver - Silver, mostly due to the promotion of Lugia in Pokemon 2000.
  • Ruby vs. Sapphire - Ruby
  • FireRed vs. LeafGreen - I have mostly heard FireRed was the better seller worldwide. I wouldn't be surprised since FireRed sounds more masculine than LeafGreen, and that Charizard simply looks more masculine than Venusaur.
  • Diamond vs. Pearl - Diamond, for sure.
  • HeartGold vs. SoulSilver - SoulSilver, for the same reasons as Gold vs. Silver.
  • Black vs. White - So far, it looks like White is selling better than Black.

Does anyone have any actual data though?
