¡Alola!
Do you remember the practic Let´s Go Pikachu & Eevee's Nickname change from the Party? Well, You can add it to your Essentials 17.2 game!

First, we're going to the "PScreen_Party" Script, and search for:

Code:

      break if pkmnid<0 # Canceled
      cmdEntry   = -1
      cmdNoEntry = -1
      cmdSummary = -1
      commands = []

And under cmdSummary = -1 we add:

Code:

      cmdApodo   = -1

Then, search pkmn = @party[pkmnid] and under:

Code:

commands[cmdSummary = commands.length]   = _INTL("Summary")

We add:

Code:

      commands[cmdApodo = commands.length]     = _INTL("Change Name")

In the same Script, we search:

Code:

      if cmdSummary>=0 && command==cmdSummary
        @scene.pbSummary(pkmnid)

And we paste under it: (show printable version to avoid errors)

Code:

      elsif cmdApodo>=0 && command==cmdApodo
        if pkmn.isForeign?($Trainer) #checks if the pokemon isnt yours, if is that the case, shows text
          @scene.pbDisplay(_INTL("This Pokémon isn't yours.\nIts in memory of it's Original Trainer."))
        else
          @scene.pbDisplay(_INTL("Choose the Nickname that you want."))
          speciesname = PBSpecies.getName(pkmn.species)
          oldname = (pkmn.name && pkmn.name!=speciesname) ? pkmn.name : ""
            newname = pbEnterPokemonName(_INTL("{1}'s nickname?",speciesname),
                0,PokeBattle_Pokemon::NAMELIMIT,oldname,pkmn)
            if newname && newname!=""
              pkmn.name = newname
              pbRefreshSingle(pkmnid)
            elsif newname="" #if the name is null, will...
              pkmn.name = speciesname #...change its name from the species name
              pbRefreshSingle(pkmnid)
            end
        end

Will look like this: (the photos are in spanish, because are from the original post made by me)
If its from othe Trainer:

If is yours:

This is the end of the post, I hope that you enjoy it.
If is there an error, let me know it.
See you later!

If you want to put it under the switch option like in the games, just put the last script under this:

Code:

      elsif cmdSwitch>=0 && command==cmdSwitch
        @scene.pbSetHelpText(_INTL("Move to where?"))
        oldpkmnid = pkmnid
        pkmnid = @scene.pbChoosePokemon(true)
        if pkmnid>=0 && pkmnid!=oldpkmnid
          pbSwitch(oldpkmnid,pkmnid)
        end

For some reason, that doesn't work. I did everything that you wrote, but nothing shows up.
