Shroudberry

Shroudberry is a plant that can be obtained in Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time by X. Shroudberry creates fog tiles in a 3x3 area when planted. Every 8 seconds, it creates a 1x3 area of fog to the right of its current fog. Shroudberry's fog slows zombies down by 40% and deals light damage to zombies standing in it every 1 second.
Unlike other Conceal-mint family plants, Shroudberry does not change appearance upon being powered. Instead, the fog it creates powers other shadow plants.
The fog Shroudberry creates also damages zombies whenever they hurt plants for 50% of the dmg done.
After the fog has advanced 3 times, Shroudberry will gain the ability to diminish its fog in order to haunt all zombies that were previously shrouded by the fog with a powerful spirit. This ability scales in damage with the number of times Shroudberry's fog has been allowed to advance. The scaling calculation can be seen here: 1010 + 70(x-2) = y, where x is the number of tiles the fog was able to advance before the ability was activated, and where y is the resulting damage amount. The maximum amount of damage this ability deals at level 1 is 1500 dps, with plant food damage being 2100, both numbers assuming Shroudberry has been planted in the leftmost tiles. Shroudberry must be tapped to activate this ability, and doing so removes all of the fog that particular Shroudberry created, including the fog created when it was planted.
==Origin==
Shroudberry's name is a portmanteau of Cloudberry, also known as the Rubus chamaemorus, and shroud, meaning a thing that envelops or obscures something.
==Strategies==
Shroudberry's slowing effect can combo well with plants that take time to unload their shots, like Dragonbruit and Coconut Cannon, or melee plants such as Headbutter Lettuce and Chomper. TBA
