Some of this in the metagame is healthy and makes the game interesting. However, a healthy level of unpredictability is, "I didn't see that coming, I lost [1 or 2] pokemon! He has a big advantage now."
An unhealthy level of predictability happens when it is paired with an egregiously strong pokemon. Instead of, "I lost [1 or 2]," it's "He sent out Lando-I. If I predict its completely random set incorrectly, of which there are about 6 sets, then I automatically lose the game. If I waste just 1 turn with the wrong prediction, I lose automatically."
That's not fun or fair. It's not a good thing that the game-determinant is whatever random Lando-I set the enemy brought and whether you predict it, in a completely random fashion.
We play pokemon, so we like and expect a little bit of randomness. That makes the game interesting and fun, and leads to some crazy moments we will remember for a long time. However, it's different when the entire battle is determined by what amounts to the roll of a 6 sided die.
Even if you predict the 1/5 or 1/6 dice roll correctly, at which the odds are against you, your victory is to have a marginal chance at dispatching 1 of the enemy's field pokemon. That's it, and he has 5 more.
I hope that helps you understand why landorus-I is too powerful to be allowed for a fun game.
