Bash-shroom

The Bash-shroom is a mushroom plant in Plants vs. Zombies: The Final Showdown that bashes nearby zombies, dealing 40 damage per shot twice a second. It can target zombies not just in front or behind it, but also above and below it, and damages all zombies on the space it attacks.
If zombies are in multiple spaces that it could target, it will prioritise zombies in front, then behind, and then the furthest left zombie that's either above or below.
It is unlocked after beating Night 8 of Dark Volcano.

==Origin==
His name is a portmanteau of "bash", which means to strike something violently, and "mushroom", the type of plant this plant is based on.
==Appearance==
A mushroom with a moderately thin grey stalk, with an angry-looking face on it. The stalk, instead of being topped with a usual mushroom cap, essentially turns into a chain that leads down to a red spiked ball lying on the ground behind it. It swings this to attack zombies.
==Almanac Entry==
Bash-shroom
Bashes up zombies that get near it, even in adjacent rows.
Damage: double
Range: up, down, left, right
Attack speed: fast
Plant Food effect: makes a shockwave to damage and stun zombies in a 3x3 area
Sleeps during the day
"I don't just like to bash zombies," says Bash-shroom, "I also like to smash, trash, mash, crash, and wash them. Wait, not that last one."
Cost: 75
Recharge: very fast
==Plant Food==
Slams the ground to create a 3x3 shockwave that does half-massive damage and stuns zombies for five seconds.
==Strategies==
Because of its unusual range, it is best suited to either being used in Pumpkins (it doesn't have enough range to hit from behind another plant, like Bonk Choy or Chomper), or behind Garlic, allowing it to attack the diverted zombies as they pass by.
Although its range is awkward, it possesses amazing DPS for its cost, hitting zombies in its range as hard as a Gloom-shroom for a fraction of the cost. It could potentially be useful during the day, though in such a scenario it could be better to just save up for the more expensive, but more effective, Gloom-shroom.
It shines in Dark Volcano, where the middle row is unplantable and so multi-row attackers are very valuable. It can easily take out Hazmat Zombies, and if one is positioned either side of the lava row, the two together could take out the vast majority of threats in that row for a very low cost.
