"Guide to Catching Nickit and Thievul in Pokemon GO"
The *Pokemon GO* Deep Depths event introduces new Pokemon, including Nickit and Thievul, but filling out your Pokedex isn't always easy. Here's a detailed guide on how to catch these elusive creatures during the event.
How to Get Nickit in Pokemon GO
Catching Nickit in the Wild
During the Deep Depths event, Nickit, a Dark-type Pokemon, becomes an uncommon encounter in the wild. To increase your chances, keep a close eye on your radar at the bottom right of the screen. Staying vigilant will help you spot and catch a wild Nickit before it disappears.
Hatching Nickit from an Egg
Nickit can also be hatched from 7 km eggs during the event. To help those with busy schedules, the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator during the Deep Depths event is reduced by half, making it easier to hatch these eggs and potentially get a Nickit.
Getting Nickit from Field Research
The Deep Depths event includes Field Research tasks that require you to "defeat two Team Go Rocket Grunts" to encounter Nickit. This can be challenging, but for those willing to spend a little, the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket, priced at $1.99, offers two guaranteed chances to catch Nickit. The first opportunity comes after completing the "Defeat a Team Go Rocket Grunt" task, and the second after finishing all the missions.
How to Get Thievul in Pokemon GO
Thievul, like most evolved Pokemon in *Pokemon GO*, does not appear in the wild. To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you'll need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Using Pinap Berries when catching Nickit can double the Candy you receive, helping you reach the required amount before the event ends. Setting alerts in your Pokedex for wild Nickit appearances can also be beneficial.
How Long is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?
The Deep Depths event starts on March 19 and ends on Monday, March 24, 2025, at 8:00 PM local time. With a full weekend ahead, it's the perfect opportunity to explore local hotspots and use Incense to attract more Nickit. This will help you gather enough resources to add both Nickit and Thievul to your Pokedex.
That's how you can obtain Nickit and Thievul during the Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO*. For more information, check out the full Ditto disguise list for the mobile game in March 2025.
