Springy Shiitake

Springy Shiitake is a plant obtained in Mushroom Mineshaft in Plants vs. Zombies: The Thousand Pages. He will bounce zombies that touch him back 3 tiles, but the knockback distance is reduced by 0.75 tiles every time he bounces zombies back. He also deals some damage to the zombies while bouncing them back.
==Origins==
Springy Shitake is based on a shiitake (Lentinula edodes), which is an edible mushroom native to East Asia and is cultivated and consumed in many East Asian countries.

===Plant Food Effect===
When fed with Plant Food, Springy Shiitake will be back to his full bounce (3 tiles), will bounce back all zombies 3 tiles in-front of him back 3 tiles and stun them for 7 seconds.
==Strategies==
Springy Shiitake can be used similarly to other knockback plants such as Chard Guard or Hurrikale. He slows down the progress of the zombies and gives you more time to deal with them. Due to his ability, putting him in the front of the lawn is probably the best idea. He is especially useful in Mushroom Mineshaft to push back strong zombies like Drilling Zombies, Crystal Disintegrators 1000 or Stonified Gargantuars. He can also push back Excavator Zombies before they have the chance to use their shovels. Once a bunch of zombies get stuck together, you can use an explosive plant, such as Cherry Bomb to destroy most of them in one go.
If his spring becomes too weak, you could use Plant Food to bring it back to his full bounce while also knocking zombies back and stunning them.
Take in mind that, unlike Spring Bean, Springy Shiitake is able to bounce back low flying zombies.
