The Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO* brings new opportunities to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to secure these elusive Dark-type Pokemon before the event concludes.
Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO
To catch Nickit in the wild, keep a keen eye on your radar located at the bottom right of your screen during the Deep Depths event. Nickit is an uncommon encounter, so vigilance is key. Regularly checking your surroundings and utilizing the radar will increase your chances of spotting and capturing this sneaky Pokemon.
Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO
Another method to obtain Nickit is by hatching it from 7 km eggs. The Deep Depths event makes this process more accessible by halving the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator. This adjustment is a boon for players who can't dedicate extensive time to walking, making it easier to hatch Nickit and add it to your collection.
Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO
For those willing to take on a challenge, the Deep Depths event's Field Research tasks you with defeating two Team Go Rocket Grunts to encounter Nickit. If you're looking to bypass the challenge, consider purchasing the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket for $1.99, which guarantees two encounters with Nickit. The first encounter is available after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt, and the second follows the completion of all missions.
How To Get Thievul in Pokemon GO
Evolving Nickit into Thievul requires 50 Nickit Candy. Since Thievul doesn't appear in the wild, catching multiple Nickit is essential. Utilize Pinap Berries to double the Candy you receive from each catch, speeding up your collection process. Setting alerts in your Pokedex for Nickit sightings can also help you stay on top of potential encounters.
How Long Is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?
The Deep Depths event runs from March 19 to March 24, 2025, ending at 8:00 PM local time. With a full weekend to explore, it's the perfect time to use Incense and visit local hotspots to maximize your chances of encountering Nickit. By the end of the event, you should have enough Nickit Candy to evolve into Thievul and complete your Pokedex entries.
That's your guide to catching Nickit and evolving it into Thievul during the Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO*. For more tips, check out the full Ditto disguise list for March 2025.
