Give us more compelling side content, like alternate battle facilities. Nobody fondly remembers Gen 7 for Z-Moves, Gen 8 for Dynamax, and Gen 9 for Terastalisation.
Gen 7 is enjoyed for giving us Regional Variants and Poke Pelago.
Gen 8 is enjoyed for giving us the beginnings of an open world game, but mostly for Legends Arceus.
Gen 9 is enjoyed for giving us an ACTUAL open world game.
