Doesnt really make sense considering it did better than Crystal, Emerald & Platinum but under Yellow & Black 2/White 2.

Basically sold right about the average for expansions/sequels.

Exactly, for what was a bit of an expansion of an already existing game it outsold Dragon Quest XI 3DS's first week in Japan an entirely new game build from the ground up. I don't see how Famitsu and Dengeki saying something gives it anymore merit.

Maybe they were expecting Black 2/White 2 numbers (1.5 million) but that would be stupid considering Sun/Moon did quite a bit lower than Black/White so no reason to expect their direct sequels to have a different result.
