Brocodile

Brocodile is the sixth plant obtained in Plunging Rapids in Plants vs. Zombies: Lost World, after beating Level 9A. Brocodile can be planted both on land and water, and support plants on top of it like Lily Pad (you cannot plant Brocodile on a plant on land, so you will need to place Brocodile before placing any plant in the same tile). Brocodile is resistant to the strong current in Plunging Rapids, and will not move along with any other plant positioned above it and on it. On land, Brocodile can attack zombies one tile ahead of it by repetitively biting them, and, on water, Brocodile can drag a zombie down into the water to instantly defeat them (does not work on vehicles and Gargantuars), but, however, Brocodile has to take time to finish up his meal before resurfacing to be able to drag down more zombies (45 seconds).
==Origins==
Brocodile's name is a portmanteau of the words 'broccoli' and 'crocodile'. Broccoli, or Brassica oleracea var. italica (scientific name) is the vegetable that Brocodile is based on, and crocodile being the animal that Brocodile represents.
==Almanac entry==
Brocodile
Sun cost: 100
Recharge: Mediocre
Amphibous plant that supports non-aquatic plants on top of it, is resistant to strong current and attacks zombies, but differently on land and water.
Special: Resistant to current, and can prevent plants above it in the same column from getting affected as well
“Me am Brocodile!” said Brocodile. “Me have BIG white teeth for chew chew!” Brocodile’s English definitely isn’t the best, but hey, at least he’s trying.

===Plant Food effect===
When fed with Plant Food on land, Brocodile will bring its tail forward smack all zombies in front of it (in its lane only), knocking back all zombies which are within three tiles in front of Brocodile back to the fourth tile away from Brocodile and damaging the zombies that were formerly one tile in front of Brocodile for 900 DPS. When fed with Plant Food on water, Brocodile will bring its tail forward and smack zombies in front again (in its lane only), knocking back zombies in a similar manner but this time, Brocodile creates a wave that pushes back zombies further for six tiles instead of four, and 900 DPS is dealt to all zombies caught in the wave.

==Strategies==
Brocodile can be useful for two things. Firstly, Brocodile can be utilised to ensure that your plants don't get engulfed by strong current. This can be done by replacing Lily Pads with Brocodiles in the fifth lane on the appropriate columns, ensuring that your defense stays intact. Secondly, Brocodile can be used for offense, and you can put Brocodile at the front lines (while having defensive plants like Wall-nut on them to protect them) to attack zombies to aid your defense. It is not recommended to use Brocodile as a complete replacement for Lily Pad. Although bringing both plants may take up more seed slots, it is not efficient to use Brocodile only to support plants on the water due to Brocodile's high sun cost compared to Lily Pad (which is four times the cost).
