The Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO* introduces new Pokemon, including Nickit and its evolution, Thievul. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to catch and evolve these Dark-type Pokemon during the event.
How to Get Nickit in Pokemon GO
Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO
To catch Nickit in *Pokemon GO*, you'll need to encounter it in the wild during the Deep Depths event. Keep an eye on your radar in the bottom right corner of the game to spot this uncommon Dark-type Pokemon. Staying vigilant and checking frequently will increase your chances of adding Nickit to your collection.
Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO
During the Deep Depths event, Nickit can also be hatched from 7 km eggs. To make hatching easier, the event reduces the hatch distance for Eggs placed in an Incubator by half. This means you can hatch Nickit more quickly, even if you can't spend all day walking.
Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO
Another way to obtain Nickit is through Field Research tasks. During the event, completing the task to "defeat two Team Go Rocket Grunts" will reward you with an encounter with Nickit. If you're looking for a quicker path, you can purchase the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket for $1.99. This ticket guarantees two chances to catch Nickit—one after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt and another after completing all missions.
How to Get Thievul in Pokemon GO
To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you'll need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Thievul won't appear in the wild, so focus on catching as many Nickit as possible. Using Pinap Berries will double the amount of Candy you receive per catch, helping you reach the necessary amount faster. Setting alerts in your Pokedex can also notify you when a Nickit is nearby, making your hunt more efficient.
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 ahead, it's the perfect opportunity to explore local hotspots and use Incense to attract more Pokemon. By the end of the event, you should have ample opportunities to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul.
That's everything you need to know about getting Nickit and Thievul in *Pokemon GO* during the Deep Depths event. For more tips, check out the full Ditto disguise list for March 2025 in the mobile game.
