"Guide to Catching Nickit and Thievul in Pokemon GO"

The mobile game *Pokemon GO* is introducing new Pokemon during the Deep Depths event, and catching Nickit and evolving it into Thievul might require some strategy. Here's your comprehensive guide to adding these new additions to your Pokedex.

Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO

The most straightforward way to obtain Nickit is by catching it in the wild. During the Deep Depths event, this Dark-type Pokemon will be an uncommon encounter, so keep your eyes peeled and regularly check the radar at the bottom right of your screen. You won't want to miss the chance to add this sly creature to your collection.

Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO

If you prefer a bit of mystery, Nickit can also hatch from 7 km eggs during the event. To help you out, the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator during the Deep Depths event will be halved, making it easier to hatch those eggs without spending all day walking.

Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO

For those willing to take on a challenge, the Deep Depths event Field Research tasks you with defeating two Team Go Rocket Grunts to unlock an encounter with Nickit. It's a tough task, but for those looking for a shortcut, the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket, priced at $1.99, offers two guaranteed chances to catch Nickit. The first opportunity comes after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt, and the second after completing all the missions.

How To Get Thievul in Pokemon GO

Evolving Nickit into Thievul is the only way to get this Pokemon, as it won't appear in the wild. You'll need to gather 50 Nickit Candy to evolve one of your caught Nickit. Utilize Pinap Berries to double the Candy you receive from each successful catch, ensuring you have enough before the event ends. Setting alerts in your Pokedex for wild Nickit appearances can also streamline your efforts.

How Long Is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?

The Deep Depths event, which is your window to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul, starts on March 19 and wraps up on Monday, March 24, 2025, at 8:00 PM local time. With a full weekend ahead, it's the perfect time to explore your local hotspots and use Incense to increase your chances of encountering Nickit. By the end of the event, you should have enough Nickit to start planning for Thievul's place on your team.
