Nickit Hype

Well we have clawed our way out of the relegation zone with July’s Sobble match. Can we somehow manage to stay up with the deciding match, Nickit shiny debut?

Nickit will be stealing the stage Sunday 16 August featuring 3x catch stardust. Time to get those star pieces on, party up for the decreased egg hatching distance and see how many fox pokemon we can catch before it swipes our place in the CDL table.

What is CDL?

CDL is a Global Pokémon Catching competition between various communities vying for catching dominance. It opens at 09:00 and closes at 17:15 locally every Community Day.

The competition is broken down into two divisions; Catch and Weight.

Catch Division Score 1 point for every Nickit caught during the 3 hour Community Day event. Score +5 points for every shiny Nickit caught not traded during Community Day. Your score is calculated with screenshots of your Nickit Pokédex from before and after Community Day. Along with a screenshot of your shinies with the search string. Age0&shiny&!traded&+nickit

Weight Division This is your heaviest and lightest shiny Nickit caught this year. This is entirely based on the Weight of the Pokemon. It does NOT have to be xxl or xxs as that is based on height not weight. You will need screenshots of shiny Nickit with the weight and height visible for entry into this division. Please do not send evaluation screenshots. Those hide the height of the Pokemon. We can see if it’s from a previous year with the year tag.

For full rules, information, and direct entry please see the CDL link at the end of the blog. If you need any assistance with the website, please feel free to message.

Additional Information CDL is a global competition. This means you do not have to attend our Meetup or play in Doncaster. However, if you are able to attend, please consider it. The check-in rewards are definitely worth it. See the Rewards section for an items listing.

Screenshots must be taken within the competition time period. No earlier than 9am and no later than 5:15pm. Upload deadline is 5:30pm. If there is an issue, please message. To ensure fair play, points may be deducted from communities who do not follow the rules.

You must play according to Niantic’s ToS guidelines. This includes but is not limited to not using multiple autocatchers on one account.

Entry is done via the CDL Website. You must be listed in Raiding Doncaster & Beyond to be eligible for RDAB rewards. If you want to switch communities, you will need to join the CDL Discord to request the change.

If you do not have a CDL account, a competition record will be created for you. This record is only visible on the website for 7 days or less, unless you log into the competition record to claim it and accept the privacy notices. A DM will be sent via Campfire with temporary access to the record.
