I can give you some general pointers:
1. Try looking at the PokeBattle_Scene scripts, that's where I'd expect to find the UI logic.
2. CommandMenuDisplay handles drawing the Fight/Pokemon/Bag/Run (according to a comment above it).
3. You'll probably need to disable the bag command. I think that will involve removing "Bag" from pbCommandMenu, and also might need to make changes in pbCommandMenuEx to deal with there only being 3 commands.
Note that if you care about the Safari etc then you'll need to be careful with your changes.

hiya. ya... i read about this on one of the wiki pages but it said it was no longer relevant. i made a copy of the script and tried it anyway and it didnt work. i think it must have changed for the newer version of essentials. I don't understand all the other stuff written in the script.

I'm not sure which page you're talking about.
The quickest change I found to disable the bag was to replace the existing pbItemMenu in PokeBattle_Scene with this:
Code:
def pbItemMenu(index)
Kernel.pbMessage(_INTL("Can't use that here."))
return 0
endAlthough you'll probably want to wrap that in an if statement that doesn't apply in wild battles (or limit the in-battle bag so that it only allows the player to access the Balls pocket), if you want to be able to catch Pok?mon.
I'm afraid you'll have to take a look at changing the UI yourself before I'm willing to help. Feel free to ask questions about specific bits of code and I'll try to answer as best I can.

okay so... i know what u mean by that. its like when u cant use something like the bike indoors in the old games and it says "u cant use that here"? i was hoping to do something clever like in this picture though... but maybe not use the bag button? can i do that?

You can do that, but I don't have the time to work out how. If you want to make it look like your picture the places to look at are SpriteWindow_text and PokeBattle_Scene. My suggestion was a workaround for until you've worked out how.
If you do try and program that UI change, I think the best way is to detect if all the columns in the row are the same, and then display a single centered column if so. This way you'll only need to change the text and command for "Bag" to be the same as "Fight"'s and shouldn't break anything else.
