Z Transformer

Z Transformer acts like a normal zombie, but after a while, he transforms random plants into mutated imps! Yikes! He is first encountered in 8-1 in Plants Vs Zombies: This Means Taco! (work in progress :P)
==Overview: ==
Z Transformer is easily a big threat on the lawn despite being able to absorb only 325 damage, basic movement speed, and only being able to transform a single plant on the lawn every 20 seconds. Transforming just a single plant can be very dangerous, especially if its a plant that costs above average sun. Since the mutated imps act almost exactly like normal imps (has slightly less health, speed and, well, appearance). If not defended, these mutated imps can easily result as a loss.
==Strategy:==
An easy hard-counter to this zombie is Magnet-shroom, since it steals its detector meaning Z Transformer basically becomes a normal zombie. If you don't have it unlocked or unable to use it, tougher plants like Primal-wall nuts, Tall-nuts or plant fed Reinforce-mint plants won't immediately get transfomed. But be careful, since his transform ability is usually on adjacent lanes and won't always target the nuts. The main focus is to remove him off the field as soon as possible before he transforms any plants on the lawn weather if its using a Squash, Potato-mine, or any instant-kill plant against Z transformer. Stalling plants like Stunion, Iceberg Lettuce, Kernel-Pult's butter, etc. will stop Z Tranformer for a while making him unable to transform anything until he is unfrozen/unstunned, giving you enough time to kill him before that point.
Z-transformer is very dangerous paired with high-health zombies in-front of him, similarly to Wizard Zombie or Pirate Captain Zombie. If you don't have any piercing/area-damaging plants, than you might just be toast!..or "imped" in this case. 
Avoid using plants like single-target straight shooters, or close-range plants (unless they're planted very far from the house) since Z Transformer most likely hides behind zombies due to his basic movement speed. Long-range plants like Laser Bean, Melon-Pults should get the job done to safely destroy the transformer. Again, focus on getting him out of the lawn as quick as possible so plants don't get removed!
==Trivia:==
*If not already noticeable, his posture is the exact same as Swashbuckler zombie, despite being complete different zombies
*This was my first zombie ever made
