All this ergonomics was done painstakingly to provide the best experience for your plant terrorizing schemes. The removal of the big red "DO NOT PUSH" button also helps significantly.

## Overview

Hero-Tron 2.0 has 2000 health and changes appearances after taking 320, 600, 860, 1120, 1460, and 1740 damage before dying at 2000 damage.

### Important notes

Due to Disco-tron 3000 being hardcoded to only summon Disco Jetpack Zombies, Hero-Tron 2.0 had to be built off of Magician Zombie instead. This results in Hero-Tron 2.0 having many inconsistencies with its Far Future counterpart, such as:

* Being affected by Garlic and Chili Bean.
* Being affected by Solar Sage instead of eating it.
* E.M.Peach having no effect on it, while stunning gas does.
* Citron's Plant Food projectile tossing it instead of it stopping the projectile.
* Having immunities to most "Enchant-mint" plants such as Thyme Warp.
* Being able to be swallowed by Olive Pit instead of walking over him.
* Being able to be devoured by Snap Pea instead of shooting peas at it.
	+ Snap Pea will shoot an invisible head afterwards.
* Hero-Tron 2.0 summoning zombies at a slower rate than its Far Future counterpart.
* Summoning Electric Boogaloos in the middle of eating a plant.
* Playing its theme every time it summons Electric Boogaloos.
* Electric Boogaloos taking a much longer time to drop onto the lawn.

### Intro

**Dr. Zomboss:** I am DONE with associating with game competitors with poor body odor!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Now, it is time to destroy this event!

**Dr. Zomboss:** I used to like the idea, but it's far too repelling to remain existant!

**Crazy Dave:** Wait, Boss Man!

**Crazy Dave:** Think of all the plant heroes here!

**Crazy Dave:** They haven't done anything to you!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Bahahahaha! I HATE plants!

**Crazy Dave:** But I wanted to meet up with them again and get some autographs!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Well too bad, David. I'm afraid your meet-and-greet begins AND ends today.

**Dr. Zomboss:** A familiar face is here, and he's been looking for revenge.

**Dr. Zomboss:** This time, he's got a new trick up his sleeve.

**Dr. Zomboss:** Prepare to have your most horrible comic-book-related nightmares come to life!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go check on the special weapon!

**Dr. Zomboss:** I am very eager to see how your opponent is going to utilize it!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Especially after he failed against a parallel version of yourselves!

**Dr. Zomboss:** ...long story. Read the last issue to get caught up!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Anyways, if he weren't the real deal, you'd think he was a cosplayer...

**Dr. Zomboss:** But his heroics are about to send you and this horrid event into cancelation!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Bahahahaha!

**Penny:** User Dave, I'd like to alert you that Z-Mech has returned.

**Crazy Dave:** Oh, the guy with the robot? We'll be fine!

**Penny:** This time, he's equipped with a never before seen ability.

**Penny:** And it seems to be linked to that terrible aura I detected earlier.

**Penny:** I cannot fully scan what it is for the time being, but beware of zombies suddenly changing.

He cannot blow away zombies that are not permanently airborne, such as Imps thrown from Gargantuars, but can still push them back.

**Jalapeno** is a plant in *Plants vs. Zombies 2: Reflourished* and the fifth plant obtained in Holiday Mashup. He is unlocked at Holiday Mashup - Day 16.

When planted, Jalapeno will explode and cover the lane he is placed on in fire, dealing 1800 damage to and removing all ice-based effects from every enemy in the lane. He can also both melt frozen blocks and deal damage zombies trapped within. Barrels and wheelbarrows damaged by him will also not release Imps when destroyed. While his flames seems to last longer, he only deals damage once to all zombies, meaning that a flying Imp, while not burnt by him mid-air, will be scorched if he lands on the flames.

Gold Tile

## Statistics

### Effects

Produces 50 sun after a plant is placed on it, then after every 20 seconds if plant is still on tile

### Codename

goldtile
nosun\_goldtile

### First seen

Lost City - Day 1

**Gold Tiles** are Lost City's main mechanic. They are golden tiles that are placed on the lawn that are benificial to the player and sometimes zombies. These tiles grant 50 sun upon planting any plant on them, as well as visually changing the tile's appearance to be brighter after a plant gets placed on it at some point in the level. If a plant stays on the Gold Tile, it'll continuously generate 50 sun every 20 seconds until it is removed from the tile. The player can create more Gold Tiles with Gold Leaves but only in Lost City. Gold Tiles mostly appear in Lost City and Inzanity! but can also rarely appear in Modern Day levels as well as Thymed Events.

On the other hand, Imp Porters will take advantage of these tiles and use them as deployment spots for their tents, which act as spawners for various Adventurer Zombies.

Tile Turnip cannot be planted on Gold Tiles as Power Tiles cannot be on a Gold Tile as well. Same applies for Gold Leaf as you cannot make another Gold Tile on a pre-existing one.

## Dialogue

### Intro

**Crazy Dave:** Penny, do you think we've made it on the nice list this year?

**Penny:** Disregarding the legitimacy of this so called "Santa Claus", we have put a stop to many zombie invasions.

**Penny:** I believe we are more than qualified for those positions.

**Crazy Dave:** I guess that means Mr. Boss Man's totally on the naughty list, right?

**Dr. Zomboss:** Precisely correct, my ignorantly jovial adversary!

**Crazy Dave:** Wouldn't you wanna be on the nice list? Think of all the cool presents!

**Dr. Zomboss:** Bah! How cliche. I have a much more brilliant course of action, as you would expect from me.

**Dr. Zomboss:** That holly jolly fatso's been giving me nothing but coal every year!

**Dr. Zomboss:** I have got a literal truckload of this stuff, so I have arranged a shipment of it all onto your premises.

**Dr. Zomboss:** Enjoy the jingle bell rocks!

**Crazy Dave:** My nightmare of coal raining from the sky is coming true!!!

**Penny:** To reassure you, these coal shipments are coming from an incoming snowstorm.

**Penny:** Intensive Carrot shall assist us with this sudden coal barrage.

Grapeshot

*Grapeshots explode and scatter bouncing projectiles in eight directions.*

**"Spa-BOOM!" enthuses Grapeshot. "You liked that? I got a million of 'em! Wa-POW! Buh-BLAM! Za-... um... Ker-... hmmm... Okay, I guess I've only got the three."**

**Grapeshot** is a premium plant in *Plants vs. Zombies 2: Reflourished*. He costs 75 gems to purchase.

Grapeshot explodes in a 3x3 area, dealing 800 damage to all zombies caught in the blast, which ignores armor. Afterwards, eight grapes will be released in the cardinal and ordinal directions; the grapes can ricochet up to five times in a manner similar to Bowling Bulb's projectile, doing 200 damage for each zombie they hit.

## Almanac entry

**Grapeshot**

Grapeshots explode and scatter bouncing projectiles in eight directions.

Usage: single use, instant

"Spa-BOOM!" enthuses Grapeshot. "You liked that? I got a million of 'em! Wa-POW! Buh-BLAM! Za-... um... Ker-... hmmm... Okay, I guess I've only got the three."

## Strategies

While Grapeshot's explosive damage is greatly reduced versus his Cherry Bomb counterpart, the additional damage provided by bouncing grapes more than makes up for the loss. All eight grapes can hit zombies in the centre of the explosion to severely damage even Gargantuars, making for a great answer to hardy targets, while also dealing collateral damage to zombies all over the lawn.

In spite of the reduced explosive damage, Grapeshot is still strong enough to destroy most zombie types, including armored zombies, with any survivors often being weak enough to be finished off via grapes.

## Balance changes

### Initial launch

* ▼ +50 Sun
* ▼ +25 second recharge
* ▼ -800 damage on explosion

### Version 1.1.1

* ▼ Explosion Damage: 1000 -> 800
* ▼ Sun Cost: 200 -> 225
	+ Developer note: Despite his nerfs from Vanilla, Grapeshot continues to overshadow his exploding siblings Cherry Bomb and Bombegranate. We're taking an additional (and perhaps not the last) step in nerfs by reducing his explosion damage and increasing sun cost slightly, the former of which notably prevents Grapeshot from defeating a Gargantuar by himself.

### Version 1.1.2

* ▼ Sun Cost: 225 -> 250
	+ Developer Note: A formality to keep the ratio up to par with his bretheren. Grapeshot was still quite strong at the end of the day, so hopefully this'll reign him in.
