Origin
Bidoof appears to be based on a beaver, guinea pig, or hamster.
Name origin
Its name is derived from "beaver" and "doofus". Bidoof's Japanese name is derived from the English word beaver. In Japanese, ビーバー is the same word, but it is pronounced more closely to Bipper's name than the English pronunciation. Its German name, Bidiza, comes from Biber. Its French name, Keunottor, comes from quenotte and castor.
