How To Get Nickit and Thievul in Pokemon GO

The Deep Depths event in *Pokemon GO* brings the exciting debut of Nickit and its evolution, Thievul. Here's a detailed guide on how to add these new Dark-type Pokemon to your Pokedex before the event concludes.

Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO

To catch Nickit in *Pokemon GO*, you'll need to venture out during the Deep Depths event. This Dark-type Pokemon will be an uncommon encounter, so keep an eye on your radar at the bottom right of the screen to spot Nickit and capture it swiftly.

Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO

Another way to obtain Nickit is by hatching it from a 7 km egg during the Deep Depths event. To help you get Nickit without excessive walking, the hatch distance for Eggs placed in an Incubator during the event is reduced by half.

Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO

The Deep Depths event also features Field Research that rewards you with Nickit encounters. You'll need to "defeat two Team Go Rocket Grunts" to unlock this opportunity. If you're looking for a quicker route, consider purchasing the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket for $1.99. This ticket guarantees two Nickit encounters: one after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt, and another upon completing all tasks.

How To Get Thievul in Pokemon GO

Thievul, unlike Nickit, won't appear in the wild. To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you'll need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Utilize Pinap Berries when catching Nickit to double your Candy reward, ensuring you gather enough before the event ends. Setting alerts in your Pokedex can also help you stay updated on nearby Nickit spawns.
