That's way too late in the game to hand you such underpowered pokemon. You'll have to go out of your way to get them up to level. Bonsly, Mime Jr, and Budew show up in the Midway point which isn't bad in and of itself, but since babies are usually friendship evolutions, training them will be an annoyance because they might faint in battle and mess Everything up.
