Normal gameplay is fun if it wasn’t it wouldn’t sell 20M copies every release. People like to dunk on pokemon and there are many reasons to but they are still fun to play for millions of people.
It being pokemon helps it sell as well, though especially for kids I bet it being pokemon is more important than gameplay for wanting the games. It being the pokemon brand reallys helps to sell the games.
Though yeah fun is subjective so I'm sure a bunch of people who buy it do find the gameplay fun. Or some parts of it.

so when Palworld rips off other games quite blatantly its fine
but when pokemon uses the same, fun, formula that's bad?
