In Defence of Bidoof
Bidoof has be maligned by many people in this forum because of the way it looks. At first glance it indeed looks odd. However upon closer inspection it looks like a Woodchuck without a tail and it evolutions makes a closer match. The below images show the similarities between a Bidoof and a Woodchuck.

What exactly is your point, Bidoof is simply a common annoyance in the Pokemon community
|
Ummm...Being a chipmunk helps it how? I hate chipmunks, and I hate Bidoof.
|
Shouldn't this be in Pokemon General, since it has nothing about in-game stuff, just comparing a Pixel to animals. :P
|
Bidoof is, and always will be, the little normal type we all love to hate.
|
I don't hate Bidoof. Actually, I even like Bidoof!
It's got a great concept- a retarded beaver. And it has a good design with its DERP look. Bidoof is awesome. |
I always pegged the Bidoof line as beavers, especially if you look at Bibarel's tail. Maybe a bit long for a beaver but... idk, works for me. They also learn surf, right? Beavers. :B
:( Also Bidoof is freaking awesome, why the hate? |

Anyways, because of the startling similarities between the Pokémon, Bidoof and the animal, a Woodchuck, the breed that goes by the name of Woodchuck within the animal kingdom is hereby annoying, irritating, depressing and uncool. |
Bidoof just doesn't have much good going for it.
Its not a pokemon I hate, and people bashing it just annots me sometimes, but its not one I'd be defending. Overall I dislike Bidoof but I don't hate it. I leave that for the evolution, which I dislike even more. |
Bidoof is just an annoyance. It's just like Rattata was before I actually started liking the little purple rodent.
Will I ever like Bidoof? No. But then again, I don't like MOST of the 4th gen Pokemon. |
What is your point, Red? Nobody likes your woodchuck either.
|
Ratatta has compentition for most annoying normal type in the game...
|
I have no problem with Bidoof other than how many times you see him not just in random battles but early trainer battles. Every pokemon game has had someone like that though, so it's not a complaint about the 4th gen.
|
I don't mind Bidoof. the pokemon i hate is Tentacool more cos of how often it appears. If it was a choice of which I like more... Well it's Bidoof.
|
You want weird? Last time playing through Diamond, after I beat the Elite 4 I went to see which pokemon I needed for the National Dex. One of the ones I had not seen yet was...Tentacool. That's right, I only ran into Tentacruel all the time... (and Wingull, Pelipper, and Golduck...)
|
Hmm...
Bidoof is not that bad. Bibarel is actually part of my PET
(Pokemon Exploration Team or PErsonal Terminal (Rockman.EXE:P) It makes a great HM Slave along side Raticate (Kanto PET), Linoone (Hoenn PET) .... well you know where i'm going with this.... |
The noise of Bidoof makes me angry.
|
Bidoof is awesome, why all the hatred of the rodent. =3 >=[ Anyway, I called Bidoof a rat without that tail and it looks cuter, Bidoof also does not do evil deeds. ;) =x
|
i wish you could feed bidoof to your pokemon and have it count as like protein. Then i would like bidoof.
|
Bidoof is awesome. Bibarel is actually one of the strongest Pokemon in the OU metagame- it's bulky, yet extremely powerful, easily capable of taking down Garchomp.
But I bet none of you scrubs knew that. >:( |

I know. Bibarel becomes quite powerful. He is very underestimated. This is what I use on Bibarel. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa400.png Bibarel w/ Leftovers Bold Nature : Simple Ability EVs: 252HP/128DEF/128SP.DEF Defence Curl Amnesia Charge Beam Surf Max out your Def and Sp.Def with Defence Curl and Amnesia. It takes hits well, so pulling off these moves are easy. Raise your Sp.Atk with Charge Beam while doing some damage. Surf is for STAB and since its special, Charge Beam makes it quite powerful. On Youtube, I've seen it prove itself on OU and even take down a few Ubers. I know Youtube is unreliable but still. |
Bidoof is pure awesome!
Just because he doesn't really have that many features to make a name for himself doesn't mean he should be hated.. I love Bidoof and I am proud! |
Im neutral about Bidoof, i Don't like it nor Hate it.
|
Interesting topic here. I like Bidoof but his evolution is in bad figure for some reason. Bidoof can learn surf so it is still cool to have him, but not making him evolve.
|
I don't see how any of you whether you like Bidoof or not can say that a Woodchuck is not cute!
It is adorable! So don't be saying, "Bidoof is just as ugly as the woodchuck..." |
Bidoof's dopey look has earned it a spot on my top 3 Pokemon. It's cry sounds cool too. If I could choose a Pokemon as my pet, I'd so have Bidoof. XD
|
Sorry dude, Bidoof sucks long and hard, Bibareal is ok for UU battles though :)
|
Bidoof... wookchucks...
I'll go to the place where woodchucks live so I can catch a Bidoof... haha. >:3 |
It is also much cooler then its evolution, Bibarel in my opinion. Since Bibarel looks dumb and in general is a mockery of Bidoofs, I would much rather hate Bibarel then the cute little beaver. Can you bear hating that cute little face of Bidoof? :<

I don't really see the point to this thread, either. |
I'm with the... er, majority here. I dislike the Bidoof line. :x And like Erica said, seems more like a beaver to me. I just find it annoying, 'cept when it comes to HP Effort Value training. :>
|
... I used to hate Bidoof, but with all of these arguments for him, I have to say I'm.... neutral.
|
i got the evolution of bidoof level 100 leave it alone bt if any one wants to trade wiv me i would
|
Quote:
Bidoof has some redeeming value to me at least because it's evolution has Super Fang and the ability to abuse Simple with a Baton Passing Pokemon. It's not utterly useless like Ditto and Unown. |
Bidoof and its evolution are adorable! I have a lv. 100 one...Which I got at level 3. Admittedly, he is nicknamed Doofus...but he makes a REALLY good HM slave.
|
A woodchuck evolving into a beaver? :S
It's a beaver. Have you people NEVER heard of Canada? Y'know, we're part of North America, too...:\ |
I think it's a beaver, and guess what it's actually technically an Uber pokemon.
(I think) |
won't someone shut this thread down it makes no sense besides it dosn't belong on pokemon general -_-
|
I've also always thought that bidoof is a beaver. The woodchuck is a really cute animal, but bidoof just isn't. I dom't know about it's moves, but I just hate it's design. Rattata was okay, at least it looked like a mean little rat, but bidoof looks just stupid. Sentret was cute and so was zigzagoon, but... well I can stand bidoof, as long as I don\t have to make it part of my team. :P
|
Hmm... Woodchuck, huh?
I agree with Lightning and Beachboy, I always considered it a beaver. (Bibarel's teeth and tail are a dead give away. xD) I consider most Pokémon towards the beginning of the game quite annoying. However, I didn't find Bidoof as annoying as I found Shellos. I found that little Lapras want-to-be everywhere I went! Bidoof was only an annoyance through the first few hours of my journey. |
