Pomegranite

Pomegranite is a straight-shooting Plant in the game Plants vs. Zombies: Suburbia Defenders. He is unlocked after Day 10 of Peaceless Park.
Every two seconds, Pomegranite shoots a granite seed down the lane. Granite Seeds do 2 damage and knocks the damaged Zombie back, with lighter Zombies are knocked back farther. He can also be planted on hard tiles without the use of lawn Plants.
==Origins:==
Pomegranite is based on the fruit pomegranate and the igneous rock granite. His name is a combination of the two words, and his appearance is heavily derived from the appearance of a typical rock.

== Almanac Entry ==
==Plant Food Powers:==
===Plant Food 1===
When Pomegranite uses a Plant Food, Pomegranite shoots a barrage of 20 granite seeds down the lane then heals itself to full
==Power Mint Abilities:==
===Appease-mint===
When boosted by Appease-mint, Pomegranite shoots twice as fast and does double damage to Zombies it hits.
===Contain-mint===
When boosted by Contain-mint, Pomegranite's seeds knock Zombies back twice as far and stun damaged Zombies for a second after they are knocked back.
== Strategies ==
While Pomegranite is a terrible standalone offense option, he is very good at keeping weaker Zombies at bay. Because of this, he synergizes incredibly well with Citron for Gargantuar defense, as he can knock back weaker Zombies to allow Citron to attack the slower Gargantuars behind. He is also good with Laser Bean, as he can stall weaker Zombies long enough for Laser Bean to do sufficient damage to kill them. When using him in this kind of defense, also remember his higher-than-usual health and plant him in front of your other attackers. His upgrades greatly decrease his DPS, but add splash damage that allows him to knock back tiles of Zombies at once. However, the splash damage is not the same amount of knockback as the initial hit, so large groups of Zombies can still be troublesome.  
It is also a good idea to support Pomegranite with slowdowns such as ice from Winter Melon or sap from Sap-Fling. This will allow Pomegranite extra time to stall Zombies and can allow for lighter Zombies to be perma-stalled more easily.  
== Trivia ==
*His appearance uses sprites from Rolling Stone, Atomic Bombegranite, and Pecanolith.
