31/39 now, Seedot was still annoying because its attacking stats are shit (maybe should have used Growth, oh well) but it evolves at such a low level that it wasn't really an issue. The main thing slowing me down is just the stage 3 evolutions. I could go a lot faster with my starter but I'm actually using them whenever I need to do switch grinding, the Medium Slow EXP curve is actually weighted in such a way that the early levels are pretty quick and they have so much PP (90) that I'm not really worried about saving them for last. The others are taking a while but I'm draining their PP every trip and Kirlia is still the only one struggling, but they're not that far from evolving. I also luckily got a female Marill, I wasn't paying attention to the gender when I caught mine but it needs to be female because I need to breed it for Azurill later, before Ditto is available.
