Of course a game whose monetization method is the initial sale made more money in the first days of its release than a game that hasn't even been monetized yet except for minor microtransactions. PoGo is still far more popular than GTA 5, far more valuable, far more lucrative.

For comparison, GTA 5 has sold around 65 million copies. At $60, in pure revenue before any expenditures that's $3.9 billion (i.e. only 4x more than how much it made in its first 3 days).

Pokemon Go is valuated at $30-40 billion, i.e. 10x more than GTA brought in in gross revenue. The game already has a yearly earnings potential of $17 billion if it were to be monetized with ads.

And that's before it's even been released globally! The real numbers are even greater.

You don't include the micro transactions for GTA or the fact that phone apps barely last more than a few months of popularity. Especially with how buggy Go has been.
