Regarding Pokemon's 1,000 steps to evolve

However, it HAS to remain in the lead party slot; if you put another Pokemon in the lead - even if you don't have them walk outside with you at all - the counter resets.
Found this on different website's forum, not mine. This is regarding Pokemon's evolution via 1,000 steps. If you're going to start this to evolve, you MUST NOT change your pokemon's party lead until it has evolved. The serebii's site regarding this evolution did not say anything about this. Can't believe I've wasted my 1 hour of time doing this when I kept changing my party's lead in the midst of that, which was why my Pawmo never evolved. :/

Ahh. That makes sense it took my Pawmo ages to evolve and I swore I did over 1000 steps so I decided to just run around with him for ages and level up

Are there any other Mons that evolve this way?

Yes, there are two other Pokémon that evolve this way being Rellor and Bramblin.

If your curious of what those two Pokémon are based on it breaks down like this:

Rellor = Dung Beetle
Bramblin = Tumbleweed

Also, since people don't seem to get this. WALK. Don't run, don't ride your bike. You will outspeed your Pokemon and return them to their ball.

My issue with those pokemons' evolution is that Serebii site (on evolution for those 3) did not specifically state that the Pokemon you want to evolve via steps MUST STAY IN LEADER'S SPOT until its evolution. In other words, let's just say you're at 400 steps already, you change Pawmo with any other pokemon for leader's spot, then the step counter will reset back to 0 for Pawmo.

That's why it took so long for most players (myself included) to have their pokemon evolve via steps. Serebii needs to add the description of evolutions for those 3 pokemon so that those pokemon at leader's spot MUST NOT CHANGE with another pokemon until their evolutions.

EDIT: I'm an idiot for not reading on those pokemon's evolution page. I think I'm pretty much misinformed or blind.
