Pokemon games are only good because of their unique take on turn based RPG combat and that's always in the games. Any changes to it (gimmicks) are entirely avoidable, you don't have to interact with them.
Tera and Dyna raids are better when you don't use the gimmick, more challenging.
The party building (catching/team of 6) the rank up system (evolution) the equipment (held items) and the stat/"character" building (EVs/IVs/Natures/Abilities/move pool) are always in the games and have only been expanded on over the years.
Meanwhile everything that adventure/exploration fags and anime role players like keeps getting shit on.

Face it, GF's target audience is turn based RPG autist and children.
