elev_200 is an internal variable of the elev function with a single value, and not a (temporary) map. Therefore elev_200[1,1] can't work.

You would need several calls to r.mapcalc, with the first one creating the map elev_200, e.g.

r.mapcalc "elev_200 = elevation[1,1] - 200"
r.mapcalc "elev_p = pow(5 * elev_200[1,1], 2)"
r.mapcalc "gradient_1 = (0.5 * elev_200) + 0.8 * elev_p"

Cf the man page (Notes section):

"Any maps generated by a r.mapcalc command only exist after the entire command has completed. All maps are generated concurrently, row-by-row (i.e. there is an implicit "for row in rows {...}" around the entire expression). Thus the #, @, and [ ] operators cannot be used on a map generated within same r.mapcalc command run. "
