You are limited to a few raids per day, and wishing pieces are prohibitively expensive, so they are useless. You are at the mercy of the daly raid table RNG, which will prevent you from actually getting what you want for your team for days, weeks, maybe months depending on your luck.
They probably want you to jump into other people's raids to get what you want, so maybe people will organize on discord or something and post raids and such, but that's still a massive pain compared to gen 6 or 7 where you could dexnav/SOS any HA you want and move tutors/TMs were easily accessible, not to mention EV training via hordes and such.
