Which item should I use instead of Miracle Berry in Pokemon Stadium 2 Little cup?

A Miracle Berry is hard to obtain as it is based on pure luck. Could I use another Berry, or is it truly necessary?
My team uses these items already: Goldberry, Thick club, Berry, Berryjuice, Leftovers.
And the Pokemon in question would be an Elekid with Icepunch, Thunderbolt, Cross chop, Psychic.
I could use a Magnet to further boost the electric power, or Nevermeltice to give Ice Punch more potential. Or I could use a Mint Berry to avoid sleep.
Is the Miracle Berry just too good in little cup, therefore making it worth getting it?
I probably will have use for it again in the higher cups, but before I waste my time I wanted to ask if it's replaceable.
