Researcher Zombie

Researcher Zombie is a special unique zombie that encountered in Internet Era in Plants vs. Zombies 2. He was also a ZCorp set in Penny's Pursuit. 
When he appears, he will tap his laptop to finding a source about how to avoid plants' attack. When the process goes on, other zombies that encountering him will obtain random effects that immune to plants' projectiles.
Each effects that obtained by Researcher Zombie are randomized. For example, when a Corporator Zombie encounters him, he will obtain an effect that immune to fire plants. When this happen, it will shows up an icon that indicating which effect that its immune to.
Also, his laptop is protectable, protecting him from any damages (except lobbed-shot plants). Once his laptop is destroyed, all zombies that gains an effect will lose their effects, while himself acts like a normal zombie.
== Effects ==
The effects that zombies obtain when encounters him are randomly-generated in separated chances. Each effects do have an ability to immune all projectiles, depending what effects that they in.
This list will shown what effects that they immune to and the way that they acts.
* Hazard-proof effect (20%) - immune to explosions, as well as Potato Mine and Primal Potato Mine's explosion effect. When exploding plants are used on this effect, it doesn't turn the zombie into scraps of ashes, but damaging them a little bit.
* Bounce effect (10%) - immune to lobbed-shot projectiles, as well as some lobbed-shot projectiles that having splash damage. It acts like Parasol Zombie, but the lobbed-shot projectiles will damage zombies when bounced off and hitting them.
* Fire-proof effect (15%) - immune to fire projectiles. When fire plants are used on this effect, it remains no damage in a similar manner to Imp Dragon Zombie.
* Ice immune effect (10%) - immune to ice plants. When ice plants are used on this effect, it will slow down those zombies instead of freezing them in a similar manner to all Frostbite Caves zombies.
* Deflector effect (40%) - immune to straight-shooting projectiles. It will acts like Jester Zombie's ability.
* Non-poison effect (5%) - immune to poisons and mushrooms. When mushrooms or poison plants are used on this effect, it will take them 1DPS (in mushrooms' case) and immune to the effect (in poison plants' case).
== Strategies ==
Researcher Zombie is somewhat dangerous zombie that being encounter, depending which effects that make them immune to. When he starts to make some zombies immune to one of the effects, they would be easy to destroy, depending what effects that they in.
Zombies that having Bounce effect, Fire-proof effect, Ice immune effect, or Deflector effect will be almost threatened to your defenses, if you didn't obtain one of those plants from the previous worlds. You can treat their own medicines by using some plants that they don't immune to, as they act like Parasol Zombie, Imp Dragon Zombie, Frostbite Caves zombies, as well as Jester Zombie.
Zombies that having Hazard-proof effect and Non-poison effect are super easy to defeat. When having Hazard-proof effect, DO NOT USE BOMBARD-MINT FAMILY PLANTS. Just defeat them with Power Mints' family plants other than Bombard-mint's family plants. When having Non-poison effect, use other plants than using mushrooms or poison plants.
