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.

No item is necessary in Pokemon Stadium 2. In fact, you can use a team with no items - all the rental Pokemon do not use items, and at least all of R1 has been cleared using only rental Pokemon.
Miracle Berry cures any sleep. This makes it better than any other status berry such as Mint Berry in most scenarios.
I don't recall status being particularly common in Little Cup. Excluding those you have mentioned, the choice of another item is opinion based. My two recommendations are a matter of consistency vs "low chance, high reward":
