How about both teams are exactly the same, and you can choose which pokemon will be the lead?
This was prediction will be the most important factor in winning, and while the common crits and hax and misses can still present themselves, there will be an equal opportunity for both sides to experience this.
It will also prevent WOEFULLY unbalanced team matchups which can make it impossible short of some very grave errors to lose a battle, and would thus justify the existence of a ladder as luck would be such a small factor as to whether you will win or not.
To further improve we could make it a best 2/3 system as well.
That way only the people who DESERVE to be at the top of the ladder will be there and not be representative of how lucky you can get with the RNG.
Or we could do away with a randbats ladder entirely.
