    I downloaded the Gen 8 project (https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/442507) and all the sprites in battle were up from where they should be. Also the gender symbols are offset to the right:

    How do I fix this? I know that I need to do something with BattlerPlayerY and BattlerEnemyY in the Pokemon PBS file for the in-battle sprites, but I don't know what numbers I need to change them by, as it seems to be different from Pokemon to Pokemon. However, I have no idea what to do for the gender symbols.

    Actually, it seems like the issue is not only with gender symbols, but with the fonts. See the attachment, put this folder at the root of your project. Try like this, and if it doesn't work, install the fonts by right-clicking each file > Install.

    Now for the sprite positions. It's because the PBS file pokemon.txt was made for other sprites (I don't know where the current sprites from the Gen 8 project come from). The PBS file was not updated for the new sprites.
    What I did: open the game with RPG Maker (it will be in debug mode), show the game menu (press Escape), go to Debug, and then Auto-position sprites.
    This will put all sprites so that the Pokémon are "on the ground". This will be perfect for every Pokémon, except for the flying/levitating Pokémon which will be put to the ground. But still, it's better because you'll have fewer Pokémon to reposition manually.

    Good luck :)
