"getOffsetY"=>proc{|pokemon|
   next if pokemon.form==0              
   case pokemon.form
     when 1; next 45 # example Y coordinate
     when 2; next 60 # example Y coordinate
   end
}

I have no idea where on earth you're getting this from. There is nothing in stock Essentials, or even the gen 6 project that says you can just plot in random x and y variables (not to mention that your description of it is not really helpful either).

To answer the question, the Gen 6 Project offers Y offset per form, and my EBS takes that into account if one exists. To use them, you'd add the following entry to where your Pokemon's form is defined in Pokemon_MultipleForms

Code:

"getOffsetY"=>proc{|pokemon|
   next if pokemon.form==0              
   case pokemon.form
     when 1; next 45 # example Y coordinate
     when 2; next 60 # example Y coordinate
   end
}

Thanks Luka, that's very helpful. However, I should've been more specific with my question.

I'd like to alter the positioning of each individual mega Pokémon.

Sorry to necropost but i really want to use it.

Spoiler:

Im usin EBS and PS v17.2 and i havent that "getOffsetY" and "Pokemon_MultipleForms". So i try to put in 'Pokemon_Forms':

Code:

MultipleForms.register(:NECROZMA,{
"getOffsetY"=>proc{|pokemon|
   next if pokemon.form==0              
   case pokemon.form
     when 1; next 33 # example Y coordinate
     when 2; next -4 # example Y coordinate
     when 3; next 0 # example Y coordinate
   end
}
})

But i havent that 'getOffsetY'. Can anyone share with me the 'def'?

EDIT:
Nvm! I found it!

add in 'PokeBattle_Battler' before 'attr_reader :level'

Code:

  def formOffsetY
    return nil if [email protected]
    return @pokemon.formOffsetY
  end

in 'PokeBattle_Scene', search 'def pbChangeSpecies(attacker,species)' and replace

Code:

pkmn.y=adjustBattleSpriteY(pkmn,species,attacker.index)

to

Code:

pkmn.y=adjustBattleSpriteY(pkmn,species,attacker.index,nil,true,attacker.pokemon.formOffsetY)

Then, in 'def pbChangePokemon(attacker,pokemon)' do the same. Search:

Code:

pkmn.y=adjustBattleSpriteY(pkmn,pokemon.species,attacker.index)

and replace to:

Code:

pkmn.y=adjustBattleSpriteY(pkmn,pokemon.species,attacker.index,nil,true,attacker.pokemon.formOffsetY)

Now, go to 'Pokemon_Forms' and search

Code:

  def form=(value)
    @form=value
    MultipleForms.call("onSetForm",self,value)
    self.calcStats
    pbSeenForm(self)
  end

Add below:

Code:

  def formOffsetY
    v=MultipleForms.call("getOffsetY",self)
    if v!=nil
      @formOffsetY=v if !@formOffsetY || v!=@formOffsetY
      return v
    end
    return @formOffsetY || 0
  end

Now, in 'Pokemon_Sprites', search to

Code:

def adjustBattleSpriteY(sprite,species,index,metrics=nil)
  ret = 0
  spriteheight = (sprite.bitmap && !sprite.bitmap.disposed?) ? sprite.bitmap.height : 128
  ret -= spriteheight
  ret += getBattleSpriteMetricOffset(species,index,metrics)
  return ret
end

And replace to:

Code:

def adjustBattleSpriteY(sprite,species,index,metrics=nil,zoom=true,formOffsetY=nil)
  ret=0
  spriteheight=(sprite.bitmap &&
     !sprite.bitmap.disposed?) ? sprite.bitmap.height : 128
  spriteheight*=sprite.zoom_y if zoom==true
  ret-=spriteheight
  ret+=getBattleSpriteMetricOffset(species,index,metrics)
  ret+=formOffsetY if formOffsetY
  return ret
end

No dude. Essentials v17 has it's own pokemonforms.txt in which you define the Y position for Pokemon forms (along with everything else), and the new versions of EBS take this value into account.

I can see that can set the Y coordinate of the player.
But what about the opposing Pokémon? How can I set its Y position?
