This is the result of your window being too small. Definitions are written such that they fit in a certain number of pixels (~488px), and if your window is smaller than that width it will not display properly. :(
Yes and no. Making a UI fully responsive and fluid is substantially more work, and even in those designs you usually end up wanting to make certain elements (in this case, the data boxes) fixed dimensions so you can reason about them more easily (Pokemon Showdown is already responsive given it is the same site on mobile and desktop, its just hard bordering on impossible to make something look ideal on all possible screen layouts).
I don't want to reject this suggestion out of hand, because if someone is willing to try and find a solution that will also work on smaller layouts (possibly by leveraging @media queries?) such a PR would likely be accepted provided it doesn't cause negative impacts at other viewport dimensions, but it seems unlikely that we'll be trying to optimize for browser windows this small - at the end of the day, it really does help to draw the line somewhere.

Unfort.
Would it instead be doable to allow users to adjust the size of the battle chat? ie, letting it take up some or all of the space that would normally be reserved for whatever rooms you're looking at.
