Pokemonfans are notorious for being quite creative, but ever since the series' inception, it seems that one of the community’s favorite pastimes involves creatingfan art for fusions of existing Pokemon.Typically, these fusions involve crossing over different starter or Legendary monsters to imagine how they’d look, but some other fusions are downright hilarious.
Pokemonfans might be aware that the two monsters, in particular, that have been featured in various media recently are Bidoof and Arceus. For whatever reason, The Pokemon Company recently declared July 1 to be Bidoof day, celebrating with merch, in-game events, and more. January 2022 also marks the release of the upcomingPokemon Legends: Arceusgame. Now, fans have fused Bidoof and Arceus together for a hilariously terrifying concept.

Over on Reddit, user SuncraftXD posted an image of Bidoof and Arceus fused together in their originalPokemon DiamondandPearlsprite art. The fusion was made using the Pokemon Fusion Generator 2 from the fusion-dedicated website Japeal. It is certainly interesting to see one of themost commonly memed Pokemonbe fused with the all-powerful Mythical creator of the Sinnoh region.
Bidoof gained meme popularity largely based on how often it appears in the 4th generationPokemontitles, marking itself as the regional rodent Pokemon of Sinnoh. It is also considered to be fairly weak, despite Bidoof and its evolved form Bibarel being able to learn a wide array of useful HM moves. Arceus, on the other hand, plays an integral role in the lore of the Sinnoh region, not only creatingsignificant Legendary Pokemonlike Uxie, Azelf, Mesprit, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, but even the Sinnoh region and possibly the entirePokemonuniverse itself, so seeing it fused with Bidoof, now appropriately dubbed “Bidceus,” is a sight to behold.
Aside from the Pokemon Fusion Generator, Japeal also features fusion generators for theDragon Ball,One Piece, andDigimonseries.Pokemonfusion seems to be particularly popular at the moment, however, with fan-made fusions of 3rd generationBug-Type Pokemon Wurmple and Arceusquickly going viral for similar reasons as Bidceus. It may be worth noting that Pokemon fusion isn’t entirely foreign to the series though, as the Pokemon Reshiram and Zekrom are both capable of fusing with Kyurem as ofPokemon Black 2andWhite 2.
Pokemon GOrecently helda Bidoof Breakout eventwhich featured the Pokemon appearing at highly increased rates in the wild and in raid battles, also introducing Bidoof’s Shiny form to the game. As for Arceus, fans are eagerly awaiting more news on the upcomingPokemon Legends: Arceusgame to learn how the Pokemon will tie into the game’s story.
