Pokemon Go will debut Nickit the Fox Pokémon soon in the Deep Depths event

More chances to grab shiny things

Pokemon Go will debut Nickit the Fox Pokémon soon in the Deep Depths event
  • Hatch Shiny Clauncher from March 19th to the 24th
  • Nickit and Thievul join the fray
  • Event-themed Field Research rewards up for grabs

There seems to be no stopping Niantic from adding update after update within Pokemon Go, as we now have the Deep Depths event to look forward to as March trickles in. 

In particular, from March 19th to the 24th, there's an increased chance for you to hatch Shiny Clauncher or encounter it in the wild - you'll also only need ½ the Egg Hatch Distance when using Incubators throughout the event. That seems to be more than enough reason to dive in, especially if you're feeling a little forgiving on your step counter.

The upcoming update will also welcome Nickit the Fox Pokémon to the fray along with its Evolution, Thievul - all you need is 50 Nickit Candy to make that evolution happen. As for wild encounters, Murkrow, Sneasel, and Corphish will pop up more often, along with Clamperl, Purrloin, Female Frillish and Clauncher - plus their Shiny variants might just appear too if the RNG gods are in your favour.
