Regional forms specific evolution chains missing #655

Some regional forms are lacking specific regional evolution conditions, two examples: Alolan Vulpix and Sandshrew.

Both are in fact the evolution chain of their species, however, not only the evolution condition of the specific form is missing, there's also no way to specify that the evolution is specific for the regional form.

We miss that piece of data

This JSON contains the evolution data of different forms. I could create a script for transforming this into the required format, however the current database structure is unable to hold this information.
