Im new and looking to get into this franchise and noticed that this was the twentieth series and was wondering if you need to have watched before this one or you can just watch any of the series and they don't affect the viewing experience of the others?

I'm watching Smile PreCure after Futari wa. So far, besides cameos, some movies involving other characters or sequels (Max Heart & GoGo), it's all standalone. I'd recommend to watch Smile since it's very good imo :) only if you want, tho.

Only you can save yourself.
I only know what I know, I guess?

This is an anniversary season so it's bound to have callbacks for longtime fans, but these shows are made for little kids, who similarly, are being introduced to the series every year so each season is always made to be accessible to new audiences first and foremost.

You don’t necessarily have to watch all of them. I know this YouTube channel called “Azenzone.” He covers each precure series or movie in a fun way. I recommend it highly.

You don't have to watch any other seasons, they're all standalone. The movies involve crossovers, but they also aren't necessary. Enjoy the Precure franchise in any order you like.
Quality Queen.

Heck yes, Smile Precure deserves more love, it’s so good. I think it possibly had the most badass villains I ever saw in Precure (besides maybe Hugtto).
There’s this one part where they’re preparing to have one last battle, and one of them says
(Spoiler tagging since some people may consider that a spoiler and want to see it first).

This is going to be an anniversary season, so probably there will be cameos from other cures from past seasons so to understand who they are  is better to watch the previous seasons but ofc you will understand without watching the previous ones.
Also I recommend the past seasons because they are very good, my main recommendations are Futari wa pretty cure, Futari wa pretty cure Max Heart (same cast), Yes pretty cure 5, Yes pretty cure 5 go go (same cast), Heartcatch Precure, HUGto Precure. That are my personal favs. There are other great seasons like Kira Kira Precure, star twinkle precure, smile precure, Pretty cure splash star, por decir algunas.

No, you don’t really need to. But if you’re watching the all stars movies (precure crossover movies that feature multiple precure teams in one) it might be good to watch the other series.
But I haven’t watched many pretty cure shows

You don't have to watch the other seasons. Besides the two sequel seasons (Max Heart and GoGo), each Precure entry is standalone; you can watch whichever ones you like in any order you like. Since you're new, my personal recommendations of must-watch Precure seasons are (in no particular order): Heartcatch Precure!Fresh Precure!Go! Princess PrecureHug tto! PrecureSmile Precure!Tropical-Rouge! PrecureHealin' Good♡Precure, Star☆Twinkle Precure, and Futari wa Precure: Splash☆Star.
