Pineaprickle (10th Birthdayz)

Pineaprickle is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 introduced in the v8.6.2 update. She shoots sharp leaves that go through multiple zombies at once.
==About==
Pineaprickle costs 175 sun to plant, and she fires leaves that go through multiple zombies. These leaves can target up to 5 zombies and deals 40 damage.
She can also attack nearby zombies, similarly to Endurian. The prickle can deal 20 damage to zombies.
Pineaprickle can be unlocked for 250 seed packets, and the player can do so by playing her tournament named "Pineaprickle's Prickly Season" which was available from June 6th to July 8th, 2020. If you missed it, you can still obtain her seed packets in Neon Mixtape Tour piñatas.
==Origins==
Pineaprickle is based on ananas comosus, better known as a pineapple.
Pineaprickle is a portmanteau of pineapple, the fruit she is based on, and prickle, which means a small thorn of a plant, relates to the method of attack she uses when zombies get too near.
== Upgrades ==
===Plant Food effect===
When given plant food, she will shoot 3 large spikes that deal 1000 damage to anything it encounters. It can only hit 5 zombies before breaking apart.
===Spear-mint's effect===
When Spear-mint is on the lawn, Pineaprickle gains an additional 100 DPS to its attacks, and her prickle attack gains an additional 20 DPS. Her attack will be able to pierce through 1 more zombie.
==Almanac Entry==
== Strategies ==
Pineaprickle might seem a bit weak at first, but she could be really useful to use in some situations. She can pierce multiple zombies, which means that she can be used to damage zombies that are incoming and stronger plants will finish them.
Using her with stalling plants is a good idea, especially if she's using her prickle ability. This gives Pineaprickle more time to damage the zombie, and possibly kill it.
Pineaprickle can be used as a staller for zombies, not only will it give more time for other plants to attack, but she will also damage the zombies and making them weaker.
in Frostbite Caves and Wild West, she could be useful for countering Zombie Chickens and Ice Weasels. Putting a defensive plant in front of her is recommended though, because her firing is a little bit slow to kill all of them. 
Like most plants, using her against Jester Zombies is a bad idea since he can deflect Pineaprickle's projectiles. Use other plants instead like Laser Bean.
== Trivia ==
* Her almanac entry refers to her other almanac entry, which said that she was scared of zombies.
