'''Bidoof''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビッパ''' ''Bipper'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.
 
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bidoof are small brown rodent-like creatures with large front teeth which they use for gnawing on wood. They have tufts of fur on their tails and a ring of them on their faces. They also have slightly webbed paws.
====Gender differences====
The tail of a male Bidoof consists of five tufts of fur, while the tail of a female only has three.
 
====Special abilities====
===Behavior===
Bidoof need to constantly gnaw on hard substances to keep their teeth ground down, since they grow constantly. Without something to gnaw on, they become violent because of the pain and inconvenience the unwieldy growing teeth cause.
 
===Habitat===
Bidoof build their nests along the side of bodies of water.
 
===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
 
Bidoof feed mainly on seeds, roots, and plants. Occasionally they eat tree bark.

==Trivia==
*Bidoof is a frequent topic of ridicule of Pokémon forums because of its appearance, the frequency of encountering it in-game, and the fact that its name is derived from the word "doofus". Players joke about using a team of all Bidoof or claim that it is the most powerful Pokémon in existence.
*A guest comic to the webcomic [http://www.vgcats.com VGCats] parodied Bidoof by giving it the nickname [http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=235 the "Vendor Trash" Pokémon].
*Despite being called the Plump Mouse Pokémon, most of its traits, most notably its appearance, are more similar to that of a beaver or gopher than a mouse.
* In all regions, there is a two-stage {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon encountered early in the region that is based on a rodent. Bidoof is the [[Sinnoh]] variation on this theme. Compare to {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Sentret}}, and {{p|Zigzagoon}}.
 
===Origin===
Bidoof appears to be based on a {{wp|beaver}}, or a {{wp|gopher}}.
====Name origin====
Its name is derived from ''beaver'' and ''doofus'' or ''tooth''. Bidoof's Japanese name is derived from the English word ''beaver'' and 出っ歯 ''deppa'', protruding tooth. Its German name, Bidiza, comes from {{tt|Biber|beaver}}. Its French name, Keunottor, comes from {{tt|quenotte|milk tooth}} and {{tt|castor|beaver}}.
