Nickit and Thievul: How to Catch Them in Pokemon GO

The *Pokemon GO* Deep Depths event brings the exciting debut of Nickit and Thievul, offering players new challenges and opportunities to expand their Pokedex. Here’s a detailed guide on how to catch these elusive Dark-type Pokemon during the event.

How to Get Nickit in Pokemon GO

Catching Nickit in the Wild

During the Deep Depths event, Nickit appears as an uncommon wild encounter. To maximize your chances of catching one, keep an eye on your radar in the bottom right corner of the screen. Staying vigilant and regularly checking your surroundings will ensure you don’t miss out on this sneaky Pokemon.

Hatching Nickit from an Egg

Another way to obtain Nickit is by hatching it from 7 km eggs. The event makes it easier for players by halving the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator, which is perfect for those who can’t spend all day walking.

Getting Nickit from Field Research

The event's Field Research task requires you to "defeat two Team Go Rocket Grunts" to encounter Nickit. If this seems daunting, you can opt for the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket, priced at $1.99, which guarantees two Nickit encounters. The first encounter is after completing the "Defeat a Team Go Rocket Grunt" task, and the second after finishing all missions.

How to Get Thievul in Pokemon GO

Unlike Nickit, Thievul isn’t found in the wild. To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Utilizing Pinap Berries can double the candy you receive upon catching Nickit, helping you gather enough before the event ends. Setting up alerts in your Pokedex for Nickit sightings can also streamline your search.

How Long Is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?

The Deep Depths event starts on March 19 and concludes on March 24, 2025, at 8:00 PM local time. With a full weekend to explore, it’s an ideal time to visit local hotspots and use Incense to increase your encounters with Nickit. This window gives you ample opportunity to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul for your Pokedex.

That's your comprehensive guide on how to get Nickit and Thievul in *Pokemon GO* during the Deep Depths event. Happy hunting, and don't forget to check out the full Ditto disguise list for March 2025 to enhance your gameplay further.
