Octo-Pet (PvZ:BOBS)

Octo-Pet is the boss of Murky Lake in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle of Both Sides, and is battled in Murky Lake - Day 25. It takes up a 1x2 area at the right side of the lawn, moving to different rows occasionally. It can send out zombies out of the water, and it can only be attacked in the row it occupies at any one time. Zombies can be sent out by walking into the lawn, too.
==Almanac entry==
==Phases==
Octo-Pet randomly performs one of the following actions:
*Octo-Pet eye will splash the water and summon zombies out of the water. Zombies can be sent out by walking into the lawn, too.
*A target will appear on a random space and Octo-Pet will throw the anchor on its head at that space, destroying any plant on it and leaving the anchor there unless that plant is using Plant Food.
*Octo Pet will open its mouth, and summon octopuses from the sky. They blind plants similar to Octo Zombie's octopuses.
*Octo-Pet will submerge into the water and charge diagonally, flinging away all plants and zombies in its path. Octo-Pet will then stop short of the lawn mowers or the edge of the lawn, and swim back to it's original position.
**Plant Food effects can stop it while it is driving.
*Octo-Pet will get a bottle of ink and throw it at a water tile, creating an ink spill and preventing plants from being planted there. It also slows zombies on that tile.

==Strategies==
Octo-Pet isn't much of a problem, as it has lower health than other bosses. But, it can only be attacked on the water lanes, which may be problematic on certain occasions. It also has abilities that can be quite annoying, so beware of them. Here are the methods to face them:
*You can disregard the anchor throwing attack when you have Plant Food to protect your plants, but the damage per shot of the anchor is much higher than the boulder of Zombot Canvas Cruiser's. Find a way to destroy it earlier.
*The octopuses summoning attack should be treated as same as the ones of Octo Zombie's, but in larger numbers.
*The charging attack goes diagonally, so it could be quite a problem. You should use Tangle Kelps to stop Octo Pet from charging. Also, this attack flings away both plants and zombies, so you can choose to let Octo-Pet through, although this is highly not suggested.
*The ink throwing attack limits your planting options on water, but plants like Snapdragon will not be affected. Other than that, it slows zombies down, so it can be ignored.
On top of that, use the given plants to counter certain zombies, and beat Octo-Pet as soon as possible.
