Where is the position of the enemy hp bar defined?

When I change the HPGAUGE_X value the player hp bar moves.
The enemy hp bar just disappears or move offscreen..
Where can I define the position of the enemy hp bar?

Both bars use the same coordinates. Something that is in a different place depending on whether it's for a user's Pokémon or an opponent is the shininess star, so you could have a look at that to see what to change.

Sorry but I don't get it.
How can they both use the same coordinates.
The only thing I see that defines how the bars are drawn is this code:

self.bitmap.fill_rect(@spritebaseX+hpGaugeX,hpGaugeY,hpgauge,2,hpcolors[hpzone*2])
self.bitmap.fill_rect(@spritebaseX+hpGaugeX,hpGaugeY+2,hpgauge,4,hpcolors[hpzone*2+1])

How does it possible draw two of them with only this? :S

Because of this:

Code:

@sprites["battler0"]=PokemonDataBox.new(battle.battlers[0],battle.doublebattle,@viewport)
@sprites["battler1"]=PokemonDataBox.new(battle.battlers[1],battle.doublebattle,@viewport)

As you can see, both of the battle boxes use the same class when they are loaded up and called up. There are some differences in the two though, like the player box has @showhp=true and @showexp=true. So if you were to create conditional branches to check for those (hence distinguish from player and opponent boxes) you could tweak the positions of the HP bars to your desire.
