Comic - Mantis Catches Moose

You can see the comic here and here! (this one has voice acting and a note from Gregorsa!)

### Overview:

Sophodra is off-screen with a multitude of banging and crashing and one big "thud". Rose falls down and Sophodra comes out. Rose proceeds to ask what Sophodra was doing in there and exclaims the that it sounds like she broke at least 8 pieces of furniture. Rose is consoled by Sophodra, who explains that it was more like 6. Afterwards Rose asked what Sophodra what she caught. Sophodra is unsure if its moose or elk due to them "molting their skins at once."

**[1]**

Red deer *(Cervus elaphus)* shedding velvet.

Members of the family *Cervidae* (deer, like moose and elk) initially grow their antlers under a layer of skin called *velvet*. When the antlers have grown in, this flesh is shed.

In our world, deer tend to shed a bit more flesh than that.

**3 pts** if you knew about antler velvet.

Repeater Pot

Repeater Pot is purchasable with plant points from Versus mode, it’s in Advanced Shop.

### Requirement

Beat night

Repeater pot is a portable Repeater you can buy with 200 plant points. It’s a Repeater that can shoot in any direction and shoots faster than a normal Gatling pea.

### Strategies

Repeater pot can be used to deal with weaker and mid tough zombies. You can use it early game to focus on farming more. Pea pots can target flying zombies so you don’t need cactus or cactain to deal with them. Using it behind a Torchwood doubles damage and using it behind a holy wood quadruples damage.
Snow Gatling Pea

Snow Gatling Pea is an advanced snow peashooter that shoots 4 times, it’s in advanced shop.

### Requirement

Beat Ice Level or chance from planting a Gatling Pea at ice level

Snow Gatling Pea is an upgrade from Gatling Pea which debuted in Ice level where it can be obtained trough a random chance upon placing a Gatling Pea. After beating Ice level it is avalible in normal mode trough the advanced shop where it costs 275 coins.

Snow Gatling Pea shoots 4 snow peas wich deal 20 damage and chills the first zombie it comes in contact with each. This is considered Ice damage so it deals 40 damage to zombies that have an ice weakness. If you put it trough a Torchwood it will turn into a regular peas and if you put it trough an Icewood it becomes frost peas which deal 40 damage.

### Strategies

#### Ice level

In Ice level you should generaly dig up any Snow Gatling Peas you get in the late game as a lot of zombies in this mode are immune to being chilled. You should get a defence with fire plants instead. Like Torchwood

#### Normal mode

Snow Gatling Pea is a very good late game option, as it deals good damage and inflicts the chilled effect. It becomes even stronger when combining it with Icewood because each pea will do 40 damage instead of 20 damage then.

#### Hell mode

In Hell mode Snow Gatling pea is realy good for the late game, especialy when using Icewood because several zombies are weak to Ice damage in Hell mode.
Formicosa Apex

> "But for now, we move up to Formicosa Apex and within it, Formicosa City." - Gregorsa
>
>

Formicosa Apex is a bladder in the Formicosa bladder complex, and is a part of the Tricularia system as a whole. Formicosa Apex is the top bladder in the complex. There is currently not much known about Formicosa Apex after it's capitol, Formicosa City, which is a highly active hub of Tricularian commerce.

### Formicosa City

Formicosa City is the capitol of Formicosa Apex. With residents from all across the bladders, Formicosa City is by far Tricularia's most populous city. In particular, these are individuals from the Fly Swarm, Moth Swarm, Beetle Swarm, True Bug Swarm, and Spider Swarm, as well as many of their sister and daughter swarms. Insects from all main groups, however, may be found here. The ants closely police the city, and all Swarms bow to them.

Modified Venus flytraps are utilized as entrances, lighting, and windows at Formicosa City, a collection of plant galls linked by a network of modified vines. Despite being constructed of plants, intense UV sunlight has baked the green color. The macrovolute view of the city is black and purple since it cannot perceive the red that is still there.

The city stretches for miles both horizontally and vertically since everything is hung from the bladder's roof. Residents are required to travel the sides, the bottoms, and the tops of plant gall islands even on the plant galls themselves. For people who can't fly or fall from silk lines, all of this produces a very ominous environment. As a consequence, there are extremely few non-spider arachnid species.
Jack In The Box Gargantuar

Jack In The Box Gargantuar is a zombie encountered in ice level. He first appears at the pool stage. He is very similar to a normal gargantuar except for the fact his attack has the same range as a jack in the box zombie and throws one instead of an imp at half health. He can also be spawned by Snow Head.

### Strategies

By the time you meet this zombie, your defenses might be strong enough to kill him before he reaches the lawn. Use snow plants to stall him and Torchwood or Holy wood to deal major damage. Instant kills should be used to get rid of him if he gets too close. To deal with the jack in the boxes that he throws at half health, place squashes in the back 2 rows to kill them so they don’t explode.
Torchwood

Torchwood is a support plant that makes peas catch on fire and melts snow peas, it’s in Normal Shop.

### Special

Sets peas on fire, melts snow peas, produces a 3x3 aura of light during fog, gets one shot by ice attacks, can be upgraded into Holy Wood

Torchwood is a support plant that sets peas on fire and melts snow peas. It costs 175 sun.

### Strategies

Torchwood can be used to double damage of all peashooters. It produces some light so you don’t need plantern during fog stage. If you want to use a snow pea place them in front of torchwood so it doesn’t melt the peas. Torchwood can be one shot by snow soul so make sure to place a pumpkin on them.

In heaven and hell levels you can use a magic food, making Torchwood into holy wood, which doubles peas and nullifies clouds on zombies.

### Almanac entry

*Everybody likes and respects Torchwood. They like him for his integrity, for his steadfast friendship, for his ability to greatly maximize pea damage. But Torchwood has a secret: He can't read.*
Spikeweed

Spikeweed is an attack plant that only damages one tile and can pierce, it’s in Normal Shop.

### Special

Pierces through shields and zombies, can be upgraded into Spikeden

### Requirement

Can’t place on lily pads

Spikeweed is a plant that damages zombies that step on it. It pierces through shields and other zombies. It costs 100 sun and can’t be planted on lily pads.

### Strategies

Spikeweed can damage through screen doors but its damage is really bad so it’s better to use Fume Shroom. Spikeweed can one shot Zombonis if they run over it. Gargantuars can kill Spikeweed.

In heaven and hell levels you can use magic food to upgrade Spikeweed into Spikeden, which is much wider.

### Almanac entry

*Hockey is Spikeweed's obsession. He's got box seat season tickets. He keeps close track of his favorite players. And he consistently cleans up in the office hockey pool. Just one problem: he's terrified of pucks.*
Ask Gregorsa 2: Ocean Bugs

This is the second Ask Gregorsa episode! You can watch it here!

### Gregorsa's Answer:

Before we get there, let's talk about why ants are so powerful in the first place. And they are really powerful. The neck muscles of the Allegheny mound ant can resist holding roughly 5000 times her body weight... however she will usually prefer to raise far less. Physics can account for some of this remarkable strength.

"So, to answer your question: I'm afraid there are very few insects in the ocean. Of course, that means that those that do are certainly unusual." - Gregorsa

Orchideo

The orchideo is a modified fly orchid to simulate figures and their smells. It functions as a combination of a TV and a phone, with an (admittedly, limited) "Internet."

Rose has a orchideo in her room in Formicosa B-1, The orchideo that was set up in Rose's room was custom ordered and set up by Rose, when she was having a hard time seeing it, she jury-rigged hers to provide light to see it. Another the base, The orchideo piece that Rose is found watching is called, "Hunteriana and the Flower Princesses." It explains the struggle of wasps and their fights, Rev Storm stated it's a lot like Sailor Moon.

Sophodra made a orchideo piece to inform people about chickens and was added to Formicosa City's local repository of educational and advertising material. As Gregorsa stated, "It didnt take off."

### Debut

Ask Gregorsa #1: Making Friends

Professor Gregorsa is the narrator and teacher of the story. His job is showing and explaining the episodes and all relevant information to the viewer. His main goal is to help explain and help the viewer understand the world that he lives in. As he states,"I once taught the people of our world about you. I suppose it's only right that now I should teach you about us."

He has a degree in vertebratology, the study of organisms which have a central nerve cord surrounded by bone. But being a insect himself he has a large repository of information about insects and arachnids. Some of his prowess is shown during the "Ask Gregorsa" series. (There are currently 3 of them to date.) During each episode he leaves behind citation numbers within each episode that links back to his notes that appear at the end of each episode. These are called "Gregorsa's Notes." These notes explain things within our world and sometimes offers explanations and offer insight into his world and how they are different. After that he adds sources to verify and validiate his claims within each episode.

Currently at this time, he has only been seen in a white void, seperated from the story as it happens.

There is currently no backstory or explanation for Gregorsa.

### Trivia

* Gregorsa's name is based off "Gregor Samsa" one of the main characters of the short story "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka.

Pyramid Keys

**Pyramid Keys** are items in *Scars Above* and finding them generates a journal log entry.

After getting past the Bileworms and following Richard Robinson's signal again, the console for these is found further ahead, where a bridge must be formed to continue on.

## Log entry

*I've managed to cross the worm-infested waters. Robinson's signal leads up the mountain, but the path forward is disintegrated. It looks like the floating bridge is controlled by an alien console. It's missing some pyramid shaped objects. I need to find a way to activate it.*
Protective Barrier

Zombie

This is the most basic zombie ever

Zombie is the most basic enemy of Plants Vs. Zombies Nostalgic Zone. He`s the first Zombie you`ll encounter, appears throught every stage of the game and in most gamemodes. He drops down his left arm upon losing 100 health, and drops down his head if he dies. He has no special abillities whatsoever.

He can be found in the Zombie Shop, that`s available after you beat the game and be bought for 50 sun. If you`ve beat the game 2 or more times, he`ll be permanetly free.

### Strategies

Zombies are pretty weak. They`re a threat mainly at the start of the game. To fight them off in the early game, you can use Peashooter Pot, Repeater Pot, Gatling Pea Pot, Gloom-shroom pot, any Hypnotized Zombie, or, if you lack those, use Potato Mine or Squash, you can use yourself, Wall-nut or Darkflower as meat shields to hold them off.

After early game, he becomes a very small threat, as most of attacking Plants you have available have good enough damage to kill him. It is recommended not to use Puff-Shroom against him, as it won`t be able to kill him.

However, he can be used in Versus mode as an early attacker, to distract Plant team from sun production, tho it is questionable if you should use this.

### Almanac entry

This zombie loves brains. Can't get enough. Brains, brains, brains, day in and night out. Old and stinky brains? Rotten brains? Brains clearly past their prime? Doesn't matter. Regular zombie wants 'em.

### Trivia

* If you walk up to a Zombie, he`ll begin eating you, freezing you until you die. Same goes for most Zombies.

* He can be pushed/flinged if you perform certain actions, just like most of the other Zombies.
	+ This can be used to get the "Bye Bye" badge.

* Zombie appears in every gamemode, expect for Hell Level.
	+ He is replaced with Lava Zombie in there.

* Conehead Zombies, Buckethead Zombies and Screendoor Zombies become him if their armor is destroyed.

* He appears on the thumbnail picture and Disable Zombies Spawning button.
	+ Him holding a flower on thumbnail picture, most likely references iPad`s first Plants Vs. Zombies icon.

* He`s one of the unique Zombies to have his original counterpart`s image on his shop icon. Same applies for all Zombies in Normal section from Zombie shop.

### Gallery

Puff Shroom

Puff shroom is a small and cheap attacking plant, it’s in Normal Shop.

Puff shroom is a cheap and spammable attacking plant. It only fires 3 tiles in front of it but costs 15 sun. Puff shroom is replaced by Peashooter during day and pool.

### Strategies

Puff shroom is cheap so you can use it to block zombies and deal a little bit of damage. It’s outclassed by basically every attacking plant except sea shroom.

### Almanac entry

*"I only recently became aware of the existence of zombies," says Puff-shroom. "Like many fungi, I'd just assumed they were fairy tales or movie monsters. This whole experience has been a huge eye-opener for me."*
Ducky Tube Zombies

Ducky Tube zombie is a zombie with a ducky tube that spawns in pool lanes. It has 3 variants and it chooses randomly which variant.

### Health

200

Conehead variant ||| 640 health

Buckethead variant ||| 1380 health

### Requirement

Beat the game to spawn, beat night to spawn in versus
Snow Head

Snow Head is the boss of Ice Level. He appears at the Fog stage. He can spawn Jack In the Box Gargantuars and Ice Soul Gargantuars very fast, even on water lanes. He has half the hp of Zomboss. He teleports to a random lane and spawns a gargantuar every 5 seconds.

### Strategies

The amount of gargs this zombie throws at you will eventually destroy your defense no matter how strong it is, so it is required to defeat it as fast as possible. Use bowling wall nuts to get rid of its hp fast. Despite it being very dark during fog, this zombie can be seen through walls. There’s a small chance a lawnmower goes off when snow head is in that lane, if that happens it dies.
Bloom Shroom

Bloom Shroom is a holy fume shroom, it is an attacking plant that has pierce, it’s in the Advanced Shop.

### Cost

150 sun(75 + 250 if you didnt beat heaven level)

### Requirement

Beat Heaven level or feed a Fume Shroom magic food from heaven level

Bloom Shroom is a plant unlocked in Heaven level. he can be obtained by using a magic food on a Fume Shroom, and can be planted directly for 150 sun from the advanced shop once you beat Heaven Level. It shoots much faster and has infinite range, unlike the regular Fume Shroom.

### Strategies

#### Heaven mode

Bloom Shroom is great at getting rid of weaker zombies in Heaven mode, tho it cant hit flying zombies so Cactain is rather advised in Heaven mode since it has a lot of flying zombies.

#### Normal mode

In Normal mode Bloom Shroom can get rid of a lot of threats due to the lack of flying zombies and there being a lot of low hp zombies. It does struggle with higher hp zombies so you need more defence for that.
Hypno Gargantuar

Hypno Zombie is purchasable with zombie points from Versus mode. It throws an imp at half health, it’s in Advanced Shop.

### Special

Throws imp at half health

Hypno Imp is fast (kinda) and has 50 hp and does 125 damage

Pvz nostalgic zone Wiki

# **Welcome to the Pvz nostalgic zone Wiki!**

Plants vs. Zombies: Nostalgic Zone is a PvZ fan game created by tunnnn. In Nostalgic Zone, you defend a lawn with 4 lanes for 2 stages, then unlock the back lawn which you need to defend along with the first lawn for another 2 stages, each stage lasting longer than the last. When you reach the final stage, you fight Zomboss! The game is really challenging and laggy, so I suggest playing with friends that have good devices.

### Wiki Credits

Spikeden has a bigger range then Spikeweed so it is more space efficient. If you place 2 spikeweeds in front of eachother then the hitbox will overlap resulting in double the damage in between the tiles.

### Strategies

#### Heaven mode

In Heaven mode Spikeden can be used in front of your Guardian Nut to take out certain low hp threats, but in general Cactain is better for that.

This zombie is very strong and has many health. If you're new, you can use Gatling pea with Torchwood. There's another option using 2 Insta kills, such as Jalapeno, Cherry bomb, or Squash. To avoid his Imp, either place a pumpkin on the 2nd tile, or if you have guardian nut, just place it. Low damage plants like Peashooter are not able to kill one.

If you have a fairly good defense and it is able to defend off gargantuars, you're probably fine.

You can use the Gargantuar in Versus mode if you want to send a huge zombie to attack the plants team base. Although they might just kill it with Instant Kills. If you have alot of sun with your graves defended, you can get alot of them.
