It's Bidoof Day. ...It is, though.
The Pokémon Company has designed and implemented a full scale marketing operation around Bidoof, the Plump Mouse Pokémon.
NintendObs Daily. Thursday, July 1.
I know this used to be the April Fools theme from Pokémon earlier this 2021, but now it is official, maybe even for years to come: The Pokémon Company has declared July 1 to be Bidoof Day. This is not a joke, this is not a drill, The Pokémon Company has designed and implemented a full scale marketing operation around Bidoof, the Plump Mouse Pokémon, today. We're talking... Lemme catch my breath because, this is the most heavily sourced article I've ever written... Pokémon Go, Pokémon TV, Pokémon Masters EX, Pokémon Trading Card Game Online, Pokémon Center, Giphy, Mondo, and I'm pretty sure I must have missed a couple of other #BidoofDay-related announcements here or there. That Black dude, though, like: you know how people, no matter their skin color, always use Black people for memes, right? Pokémon went for a dude so Black you know this brother was freshly riped from the original continent as if to go straight for the African market with no one left behind. Bidoof truly is international today.
