Vibing Zombie

Vibing Zombie is the second new zombie encountered in The Sanctuary in Plants vs. Zombies: Lost World, first appearing on Level 4A. Vibing Zombie, unlike other zombies, moves across the lawn at a 30-degree angle, moving across the lawn in a zigzag pattern (the zombie will randomly change directions). Vibing Zombie also has a jumping dance move which he will only use when he encounters a defensive plant like Wall-nut (he can't jump over Tall-nut though) or a single-use plant like Potato Mine to evade it. Vibing Zombie will also, for every 10 seconds, do a sliding dance move that moves him forward (horizontally) two tiles almost immediately (Vibing Zombie will ignore any plants by passing by them during this sliding dance move).

Vibes to music on his player, dancing across the lawn.

Who knew the power of music could enable a zombie to not have to eat through a plant? Actually any zombie could really do that by just walking around them but, y'know, they're just playing by the rules here, cause in this world, you just aren't supposed to do that.

==Strategies==
Vibing Zombie may not be much of a threat to your plants at first, but its abilities make Vibing Zombie a difficult zombie to target. Its unusual zigzag movement style means that this zombie will constantly switch lanes as he progresses across the lawn, which can be difficult for your offensive plants to take out quickly. His jumping dance moves also allow him to protect himself from single-use plants that activate on contact, and not waste time trying to eat through defensive plants. To top it all off, his sliding dance move he does occasionally allows him to effortlessly and rapidly progress across the lawn without the need to eat through any plants. There won't be anything you can do to prevent him from using his abilities, but you can try to slow him down to prevent him from getting past your defenses quickly. Snow Pea is good for that, slowing down the zombie and effectively giving more time for plants on the same lane to deal more damage to Vibing Zombie before he starts entering another lane. His lane-changing movement style can also be countered with multi-directional plants like Starfruit, and planting enough of these can eventually render Vibing Zombie's movement style much easier to deal with. Although you can use Tall-nut to prevent him from jumping over your plants, keep in mind that he still has his sliding dance move, and will eventually manage to infiltrate your defenses, so take advantage of his relatively low health and take him out quickly before he gets the opportunity to do so.
