The mobile game *Pokemon GO* is introducing a thrilling Deep Depths event, where trainers can add Nickit and its evolved form, Thievul, to their Pokedex. Catching these elusive Dark-type Pokemon can be a challenge, but here’s how you can secure them during the event.

How to Get Nickit in Pokemon GO

Catching Nickit in the Wild

During the Deep Depths event, Nickit becomes an uncommon encounter in the wild. Keep your eyes peeled and regularly check your radar at the bottom right of the screen to spot this sneaky Pokemon. Staying vigilant is key to not missing out on a wild Nickit.

Hatching Nickit from an Egg

Another way to get Nickit is by hatching it from 7 km eggs. The event makes it easier for those short on time, as the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator during the Deep Depths event is reduced by half.

Getting Nickit from Field Research

The event's Field Research tasks you with defeating two Team Go Rocket Grunts to encounter Nickit. This can be challenging, but for those looking to speed up the process, the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket is available for $1.99. This ticket offers two guaranteed encounters with Nickit: one after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt and another upon completing all missions.

How to Get Thievul in Pokemon GO

Unlike Nickit, Thievul won't appear in the wild. To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Using Pinap Berries can double the Candy you receive with each catch, helping you reach the required amount before the event ends. Set alerts in your Pokedex to stay informed about nearby wild Nickit appearances.

How Long is the Deep Depths Event in Pokemon GO?

The Deep Depths event begins on March 19 and concludes on Monday, March 24, 2025, at 8:00 PM local time. With a full weekend to explore, it's the perfect opportunity to visit local hotspots and use Incense to attract more Nickit. This gives you ample time to catch Nickit and evolve it into Thievul.

That's your guide to adding Nickit and Thievul to your *Pokemon GO* collection during the Deep Depths event. And if you're interested in more *Pokemon GO* content, check out the full Ditto disguise list for March 2025.
