Nickit and Thievul: How to Catch Them in Pokemon GO

The arrival of a new event in the popular mobile game *Pokemon GO* brings with it the exciting debut of new Pokemon, including Nickit and Thievul. But as any seasoned trainer knows, completing your Pokedex isn't always a walk in the park. Let's dive into how you can snag Nickit and evolve it into Thievul during the Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO*.

Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO

The first and most straightforward way to get Nickit in *Pokemon GO* is by catching it in the wild. During the Deep Depths event, this Dark-type Pokemon will be an uncommon encounter, so you'll need to stay vigilant. Keep your eyes peeled and constantly check the radar at the bottom right of your screen to ensure you don't miss any wild Nickit appearances.

Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO

Another way to add Nickit to your collection is through hatching 7 km eggs. During the Deep Depths event, the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator is halved, making it easier for those who can't spend all day walking to hatch their eggs and potentially discover a Nickit.

Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO

The Deep Depths event also introduces Field Research tasks that can lead to an encounter with Nickit. One specific task requires you to "defeat two Team Go Rocket Grunts," which may be challenging but rewarding. For those looking to expedite the process, 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 follows the completion of all missions.

How To Get Thievul in Pokemon GO

Unlike many Pokemon, Thievul won't be roaming the wild. To evolve your Nickit into Thievul, you'll need to gather 50 Nickit Candy. Using Pinap Berries can double the Candy you receive from each catch, speeding up the process. Don't forget to set alerts in your Pokedex to stay updated on nearby wild Nickit encounters.

How Long Is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?

To successfully add both Nickit and Thievul to your Pokedex before the Deep Depths event concludes, you need to be aware of the event's duration. The event kicks off 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 opportunity to explore your local hotspots, use Incense, and boost your chances of encountering Nickit. Soon, you'll have plenty of Nickit on your screen and can start planning how Thievul will fit into your team.

And there you have it—that's how to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul in *Pokemon GO* during the Deep Depths event. For more tips and tricks, check out the full Ditto disguise list for the mobile game in March 2025.
