Fly Trap (Gone Rogue)

Fly Trap is a trap plant introduced in Plants vs. Zombies: Gone Rogue. When a zombie approaches within 2 tiles to the right of him, he grabs them with his jaws and holds them in place until either the zombie is defeated or he is. Flying zombies may also be trapped and will either lose the ability to fly or be destroyed, though Fly Trap will have to recharge for 10 seconds afterwards.
He is unlocked upon starting a new save file, but must be obtained in a playthrough via a seed selection after completing a level. He is rarity level 1, and as such will appear commonly.
==Origins==
It is based on the real-life Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), a carnivorous plant native to subtropical wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina. Its name is a portmanteau of 'fly' and 'trap' as it specializes in trapping zombies, especially flying ones.
==Plant Food upgrade==
Banana Split's Plant Food upgrade is Serrated Teeth. When fed Plant Food, Fly Traps will deal 100 damage to grounded zombies when trapping them, including zombies in range that won't get trapped. The damage delt against flying zombies increases to 550, enough to kill any flying zombie in one bite. The recharge time remains the same.
Like most plants in Gone Rogue, his appearance changes, too, in which the inside of his mouth turns blue and his teeth become serrated.
==Strategies==
Fly Trap is good for stalling in the early game, and as such indirectly works well with plants with heavier sun costs.
===Notable synergies===
* Wall plants: Fly Trap is vulnerable to attacks when holding a zombie. Wall plants can help protect it during.
* Spikeweed/Spikerock: If the zombie is held in place above one of these plants, then it will take damage from them.
*Celery Stalker: A Celery Stalker behind the trapped zombie will have that zombie subject to the highest DPS in the game.
