Since you included the word "better," I have structured this to include how to get a smoother experience (Quality of Life improvements) and where to safely find the files, as standard randomizing can sometimes feel outdated or buggy without the right tools.
Step 1: General Settings
A poorly executed randomizer is chaos; a better randomizer applies logic. The best mods ensure "similar strength" randomization (replacing a Pidgey with another Basic-stage Pokémon of a similar BST) and "type-themed" gym leaders. Imagine facing Misty, but instead of a Starmie, she sends out a randomized Water-type like a Kingdra or a Tentacruel—and that Tentacruel knows Electric moves due to a randomized learnset. Suddenly, the player’s advantage is gone. You cannot "solve" the gym until you scout it. This forces a level of adaptive problem-solving that the original game only pretended to require.
