Well they did attempt to change it with games like Pokemon Ranger and Mystery Dungeon but I never heard any feedback on those...

You're missing out on the competitive side, I doubt that you know of the competitive changes to the game. Scizor with Bullet Punch moved him up about 100 000 uses a month. Salamence with Outrage just made a new Garchomp. Hypnosis dropping back to 60% accuracy made Gengar drop 10 places. Really you need to know about the competitive additions. The biggest things about DP was the physical special split, and not one review that I saw mentioned it.

There was a big revamp, in fact there is every time but people are too ignorant to see it. In Ruby Sapphire they made the IV system go to 31 rather than 15. The EV training system made a cap on total EVs, meaning that you have to be strategic in training your Pokemon. Natures were added making sweepers have to choose Jolly or Adamant/Timid or Modest. And special abilities were added of course. In DP was the physical special split, making and breaking many of the old favourites. There are others but I don't think that I need to elaborate any further.

There will almost certainly be a GS remake.

They didn't go nearly as well, because they weren't nearly as good. No one knows about the core Pokemon audience.

lol, this reminds me of a parody video where they show to trainerd going
1: "we already got the elements, all animals, time and space, where do we get next?!"
2: "We go for GOD!"
1: "No wait, we already got that"
2: ...
Doubt that'll take long to happen, after which, they'll just have to make re-makes of older games, unless someone finally puts and end to this and puts pokemon out of its misery...

There is a lot more they could do to make it more interesting.

Well Arceus made all the Pokemon, it's essentially God. I think that you'll find that now they're going to base new Pokemon on what is needed to make the game more fair (smogon has a Create A Pokemon thing which centers around what is needed). Pokemon has a really strong base on the competitive side, Game Freak needs to keep them happy and Pokemon will continue to profit.

They make it more interesting in the wrong areas (the ones that you guys are talking about), they drift away from the competitive side (which in 4th gen they were drifting more towards), and then they lose their base, and from then they are working without the safe base, in other words on thin ice. If they make a Pokemon that is too cheap, it can be banned, if they make a game that is not enough for the non-base, and they don't have the base, their screwed.
