Paleontologist(PvZ2)

Paleontologist Zombie is a zombie in Plants Vs. Zombies 2 found in Jurassic Marsh from day 20-35. It shovels up the first plant it runs into, then makes a crater when that plant stood. Although it may be tricky to pull off, you can cover the crater back up, but how will be explained in the Strategies section.
== Appearance ==
Paleontologist Zombie is a zombie with a mustache, a hat, and a shovel. It also has the gear if a default Lost City zombie and a safari hat because why not?
== Origins ==
Paleontologist Zombie comes from Paleontology, or the study of fossils. It involves digging to find them as well. This zombie is foolish enough not to cover up the holes, because if he did, he would be underpowered.
== Almanac ==
== Overview ==
Paleontologists are zombies that walk until they hit the nearest plant, then shovel it AND the tile below you, creating a ditch you can still plant plants in, but you should plant sun-producing plants inside. After a while, the ditch disappears. Zombies go around the ditch, but if there is nowhere to go, they will jump over it. Gargantuars and Mechs crush the ditches.
== Strategies ==
* The crater can be dug up by shoveling it a random number of times(usually 10-15).
* Kill the zombie before it shovels up one of your plants.
* Shrinking Violet is good too, as when a Paleontologist is shrunk, it takes about 2 seconds to shovel.
* Do not use defensive plants to counter it because they might be shoveled up, in case you don't want them to.
* If you want them to be easily gone, place the cheapest plant with the fastest recharge that you are fine with losing.
== Encounters ==
Paleontologists can be found in Jurassic Marsh, Modern Day Endless, and Arena.
