The mobile game *Pokemon GO* introduces new Pokemon during its events, and the Deep Depths event is your chance to catch Nickit and Thievul. Here’s a detailed guide on how to add these elusive Dark-type Pokemon to your Pokedex.
How To Get Nickit in Pokemon GO
Catching Nickit in the Wild in Pokemon GO
During the Deep Depths event, Nickit becomes an uncommon encounter in the wild. To increase your chances of catching this Dark-type Pokemon, keep a close eye on your radar, located at the bottom right of the screen. Staying vigilant will ensure you don’t miss any opportunities to add Nickit to your collection.
Hatching Nickit From an Egg in Pokemon GO
Another way to obtain Nickit during the event is by hatching it from 7 km eggs. The event also features a special bonus where the hatch distance for eggs placed in an Incubator is halved, making it easier for those with less time to walk to still participate and hatch Nickit.
Getting Nickit From Field Research in Pokemon GO
Engage in the Deep Depths event Field Research by defeating two Team Go Rocket Grunts to unlock an encounter with Nickit. If you're looking for a more straightforward approach, consider purchasing the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research Ticket for $1.99. This ticket offers two guaranteed encounters with Nickit: one after defeating a Team Go Rocket Grunt and another after completing all missions.
How To Get Thievul in Pokemon GO
Unlike Nickit, Thievul cannot be found in the wild. To evolve Nickit into Thievul, you'll need to collect 50 Nickit Candy. Using Pinap Berries when catching Nickit can double the amount of Candy you receive, speeding up the process. Setting alerts in your Pokedex for wild Nickit appearances can also be a helpful strategy during the event.
