Lightning Bulb

Lightning Bulb is a seedium seasonal plant that was introduced in the new v8.6.2 update in Plants vs. Zombies 2. He was available for purchase in the "Lightning Bulb Bundle" which contained 25 seed packets of him and other members of the Fila-mint family, as well as unlocking Lightning Bulb. It was available on June 27th to July 14th, along with his "Lightning Bulb's Zapping Season!" tournament where you were able to obtain 100 seed packets as another way to unlock him. His seed packets are still available on Far Future piñatas.
Lightning Bulb zaps zombies in 3x9 radius, or three lanes. He takes a 5-second break before unleashing a powerful electric attack that deals 200 damage. He prioritizes the lane with the most zombies.
== Origins ==
Lightning Bulb is based on allium cepa, better known as Onion (specifically white onion)
Lightning Bulb is a portmanteau of light bulb, which explains the metal part below him, lightning, which relates to his electrical abilities, and (onion) bulb, the plant he is based on.
He is connected to the ground, in the same way onions do in real life. (Note the roots sticking out)
== Strategies ==
Lightning Bulb is one of the free electric plants that actually has some sort of electricity in their attack. He is one of the most powerful plants despite being at Level 1, so he should be included in your seed selection. He could single-handedly defeat a large horde of basic zombies within a single electric attack. 
Lightning Bulb shouldn't be used alone since his slow firing rate can make him vulnerable to zombies. If you use him alone though, bring plants that can knock back zombies like Chard Guard and Primal Peashooter so he could take time to recharge or weaken zombies so Lightning Bulb can easily knock them out. An advantage of his is that knockback doesn't affect his attack unlike other plants. 
Another reason why he shouldn't be used alone is because Lightning Bulb targets lanes with the most zombies, and he can easily overlook lanes that has high health zombies like a Gargantuar if the lane doesn't have the most zombies. Use powerful plants like Ultomato and Citron in tandem with him to take care of the other lanes. 
== Upgrades ==

* Lightning Bulb was originally an onion, but I forgot that so I thought it was a garlic. Luckily white onions existed.
* This is one of my most well-made plants.
* I made him within 1-2 hours.
