Which works better? Rotating corn, beans, squash or planting them all

They both work fine for the tasks they're supposed to accomplish. Crop
rotation helps with plant disease and pest control and companion
planting can help with plant interactions(some pest control, some
helpful plant benefits etc.).
If you plant them together, are you still supposed to rotate or do you
keep planting them together all the time?
You should still rotate the location so pests in the soil don't have
access to the same plants in the same spots.
