Your regexp and attrs look fine, but you should probably look into aliasing some of those methods (by which I mean Spriteset_Battle#initialize, dispose, update).

I couldn't figure out how to alias it without getting it to call the functions related to the Battlebacks (which this script is supposed to replace).
Any tips for that? :)

You could alias the initialize, update and dispose methods, and simply create the battlebacks as empty bitmaps so it still works. You would do that by redefining (you could probably even alias, but there wouldn't be much point) the method that creates the battlebacks.
