legality quirk with trade evolutions for let's go #2200

Description

Hey. I'm only mentioning this because I want to make sure that the legality in PKHeX is 100 percent. When I was transferring pokemon from one save to another I realized something about some of the pokemon's legality. For all of the trade evolution pokemon (kadabra, machoke, haunter) from what I have seen in let's go there is no everstone, or a way to stop trade evolutions from taking place. Because of this there are a few scenerios where a pokemon would be illegal even though PKHeX is making it as legal.

The only scenario I have found right now without any possible loopholes is this one.

if the pokemon is met in Eevee or Pikachu (not Go or the Go Park) and it is the same level as it's met level and the pokemon has a latest (not OT) handler, then it should be considered illegal since that pokemon would have to have been traded as a kadabra, and not just an abra that was leveled up.

So just one more time, simpler

if the pokemon is met in Eevee or Pikachu, with the same current level as the met level, and a Latest (not OT) handler then it is illegal.

Thanks. I don't mean to be annoying with this one, but since we are striving to have really good (or perfect) legality then I think it's necessary to mentions things like this. Thanks again.
