Grill Zombie

Grill Zombie is a zombie encountered in the Summer Nights event in Plants vs. Zombies 2.
Grill Zombie pushes his grill down the lane, stopping every 10 seconds to begin grilling 3 random food items. While grilling, Zombies in a 3x3 area have a 25% chance to stop near him, and Zombies behind him will begin to move faster to reach him.
After grilling up some food, he will toss it to a random nearby Zombie. Grilled Food heals and buffs the Zombie and the 4 closest Zombies to it, with the buffs depending on the food given.
While 1.5 tiles or less away from Plants, Grill Zombie will reach under his grill, pulling out hot coals that he flips towards your Plants. Each coal does 2 nds of damage, and Plants will be instantly incinerated after being hit by coals 10 or more times in a row.
After his grill is destroyed, Grill Zombie will act like a basic Summer Nights Zombie, with his hat falling off at 2 nds and dying at 10 nds.
Grill Zombie also cannot be directly targeted by pult Plants, as their projectiles will hit his grill and be incinerated, damaging the grill and preventing the projectile from dealing Splash Damage or other effects.
== Types of Food: ==
*BBQ Brain: Heals Zombies to full and gives a 25% speed boost.
*Grilled Corn: Heals Zombies by 50% and gives them 50% damage reduction.
*Fried Chicken: Heals Zombies to full and allows them to regen 2 nds every second,
== Origin: ==
Grill Zombie is based on a grill, a metal framework used for cooking food over an open fire, more specifically the summer activity of grilling food. The food he throws is also based on common summer foods, with chicken and corn being things that people will often grill, and brains because he is a Zombie.
== Appearance: ==
Grill Zombie looks like a basic Summer Nights Zombie, with an orange shirt, pink shorts, and decaying blue sandals on his feet. He also wears a large chef's hat as well as an apron, with a trash can full of food tied to his back. He also pushes a red grill with a tripod base, and holds a metal spatula which he uses to fling food and coals at targets.
== Strategy ==
Due to Grill Zombie's powerful buffing abilities, he can be extremely dangerous while in big groups of Zombies. His healing capabilities allow him to wipe out damage you've previously delt, while the given buffs can make groups of weaker Zombies into big threats.
Luckily, his rather slow speed means that he will usually not be dangerous on his own. Because of this, using attracting Plants like Sweet Potato or Hot Date can be useful to weaken or prevent his buffing abilities. Stalling Plants such as Stunion or Iceberg Lettuce are also useful for dealing with Grill Zombie, as he cannot activate his Abilities while stunned. Just be sure to place your stunning Plants behind the grill, or else he'll be able to attack with coals and destroy them before they activates.
