M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E

M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E, acronym for Methodized and Naturally Generated Resource of Vapor Emission is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 released in the 2.9.1 update. It is obtained by defeating Big Wave Beach - Day 10.
It sucks water underground and around it by manipulating its roots every 5.25 - 5 seconds. and fumes forth a cloud of vapor within its lane afterwards, the cloud of vapor stuns the targeted zombie for 2 seconds and does 20 damage. In addition, M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E vapor projectiles trips Surfer Zombies, drowns Fisherman Zombies and instantly melt frozen blocks and ice blocks in Frostbite Caves. 
In Big Wave Beach, if there are 4+ M.A.N.G.R.O.V.Es in the lawn they will recede the tide line by one column and deal 20% less damage when put on dry land.
==Origins==
Obviously concluded from it's name, M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E is based on the Mangrove or a Rhizophora Mangle, a type of tree which grows in Brackish Waters and Tropical Climates, fitting to the environmental characteristics to the world it originates from.
It's design is taken and is a fuse of water pipes, submersible pumps and fog machines.

==Strategy==
M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E is best suited in Big Wave Beach, this is due to its many ability that favors the player within this world, being semi-aquatic, it has a huge advantage in this world as well as its ability to knock over surfer zombies and fisherman zombies, the latter being one of the prevalent reasons why Big Wave Beach is put on a high pedestal in difficulty. 
Although, in other worlds M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E also reveals many other advantages, in Frostbite Caves, although brandishing 20% less damage is still applicable since the introduction of chill and icy winds, it being able to instantly thaw ice proves useful for this world.
In Pirate Seas, the introduction of Seagull Zombies has also made M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E useful. In scenarios where the Seagull Zombie is hovering above water, when stunned by M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E, the Seagull Zombie cannot fly, thus instantly defeating them.
It's usefullness also can be said in other places. It's straightforward mechanics gives it synergy with other plants, by simply placing any offensive long-ranged plant infront of it has given it a synergy due too M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E's small damage, slow firing rate yet decent stun effect makes it best as assistance, not as a main offense, such example of a synergy is M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E with Turkey-pult and M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E with Shadow Peashooter.

==Trivia==
*Before it's current change, the developers of M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E thought of a different Almanac Entry. As a tribute to PvZA the older Almanac Entry states that M.A.N.G.R.O.V.E was born and is a resident of Sever Glades. This was cancelled and changed due too the fact that Everglades, the real life inspiration of Sever Glades is a freshwater marsh, and Mangrove Trees in real life thrives in brackish waters. However, in real life. Some parts of the Everglades is dominantly brackish.
*This is the quickest made plant by Deresurrect, taking 6 hours to complete.
