Mega Pokémon that boost Bidoof

The following Pokémon will grant you extra bonuses when catching Bidoof if they are Mega/Primal evolved:

A Note on Mega Catch Bonus

While a Pokémon is Mega-Evolved, additional XP and Candy is granted when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it, or for any raid boss caught. These do not stack with each other. Additionally, High and Max Level Mega-Evolved Pokémon grant an increased chance to obtain Candy XL when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it.

Is it worth evolving Bidoof?

PVE

Bibarel is not a good raid attacker or gym defender. 

PVP

Bibarel is B tier in the Great League, so has some viability with recommended moves: Rollout Rock, Surf Water and Hyper Fang Normal
