How well should it be doing?

Its doing fine (okish). Its hard to compare as the only game in franchise that makes sense for comparsion is bw2.
Comparing it to new gens/remakes isn't fair. I dont remember how bw2 did and that was awhile ago (and on ds)
I think 2mil-2.5mil is good for this game lifetime. Might get slightly under that imo

With the Switch being the big hot item, 3DS sales and interest slowing down in what could be its final year with meaningful support (besides the early part of 2018 with the Atlus localized games), history of third versions (and BW2), and with the knowledge of Pokemon coming to Switch with a new mainline RPG installment, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon can only sell so much in the current situation of the 3DS. BW2 sold around 8-9 million LT since they launched in 2012, on an install base of about 152 million (probably less if you consider a lot of owners moving on to 3DS or other consoles).
