- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness: Bidoof is a member of Wigglytuff's Guild, the second newest recruit next to the player's team. He updates his Yup Yup Journal over the course of the game.
- Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia: Nine Bidoof are used by Team Dim Sun's Wheeler.
- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky: Bidoof stars in his own special episode, being the playable character. When Bidoof left home and first joined Wigglytuff's Guild, he often messed jobs up and wasn't really liked by anyone. One day, whilst visiting the Kecleon Shop, he was approached by a Snover who gave him an old map before hurrying off. A Gligar and Bagon then appeared to be chasing Snover. The map showed a legendary dungeon known as the Star Cave where Jirachi sleeps, and after learning about it from Chatot, Bidoof decided to go there and wish to make himself a stronger explorer. Snover finds Bidoof at the Guild, and together they go to the Star Cave. However, upon reaching the end, Gligar and Bagon appeared, and Snover turned against Bidoof. It turns out that it was a trap, and Snover, Bagon and Gligar are a gang of thieves called Team Rogue. They saw Bidoof's money when he visited the Kecleon shop, so they lured Bidoof to the Wish Cave, hoping to steal his money. Bidoof fights the three, but fails. Before Team Rogue can steal Bidoof's money, the entire Guild shows up to help him. Bidoof is touched that he is an appreciated member of the Guild after all. Wigglytuff helps him blast open a hidden cave where Bidoof can find Jirachi. He finds Jirachi sleeping. It talks in its sleep, warning Bidoof that it attacks in its sleep. Bidoof must defeat it to help it awaken. Bidoof makes his wish and, though given a lot of choices, Bidoof wishes for new juniors to join the Guild so he could help them. The wish is fulfilled when the player and their partner join the Guild, thus ending the story.

To commemorate, they released a music video parodying "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley, entitled Bidoof Day announcement!. Months later, the official Pokémon YouTube account released Bidoof's Big Stand,[2] a short film focused on the story of a Bidoof.
Origin
Bidoof appears to be based on a beaver or a gopher. It is particularly similar to the mountain beaver, a primitive relative of beavers lacking tails.
Name origin
Bidoof may be a combination of beaver and doofus (slang for a stupid person). It may also involve shadoof, a device used in some countries for drawing up water.
Bippa may be a combination of beaver and 出っ歯 deppa (protruding tooth).
