### Unlocked by beating

**Ask Guacodile to tell you a little bit about himself and he'll give you a wry smile. "I'm a Guacodile. I've got a bite like a bear trap. I spit rock-hard pits with a force, speed and accuracy envied by every plant on the battlefield. Heck, I've been known to walk on water. I'm pretty much the whole enchilada." Yeah, the guy is a bit of a braggart but he's good at what he does.**

**Guacodile**  is the first plant available in Big Wave Beach Extra in *Alternate UniverZ*. He fires avocado pits at zombies, dealing small damage. When attacked, he will rush offscreen and bite each zombie in his path with the amount of time depending on the zombie's hitbox, usually being two to three hit for most zombies, with each bite dealing 150 damage. Guacodile can be planted both on land and in water, although he does not shoot at enemies when submerged in water.

Guacodile is unlocked after beating BWBX-I.

## Plant Food effect

When given Plant Food, Guacodile knocks zombies near it back and spawn two copies of itself which will rush down the lane and damage zombies.

## Strategies

Guacodile on the surface can be seen as just a squishy Peashooter that deal lane damage upon death, however his true value does not lie in being a peashooter clone but rather a quick recharge instant plant. With only 7.5 seconds of recharge they can be used to quickly weaken group of zombies, a lane full of zombies with medium toughness or lower can be easily destroyed with a Guacodile or two. It is also important to note that he will do double the damage to the first zombie he encounters, meaning it can be crucial to plant Guacodile directly on top of threatening zombies to maximize the damage they take. Guacodile work especially well in strategies where your attacker focus on single target, effectively covering their weakness.

It is not advised to use Guacodiles on Excavator Zombie as they will get thrown back before they can perform their rush attack. Another zombie to not use it against is Explorer Zombie as they can burn it without making it rush. However, by just planting Guacodile on top of them and making him charge immediately, Guacodile can do its rushing attack and still kill the Explorer Zombie.

Guacodile is great against many zombies in Neon Mixtape Tour because many of the zombies are weak enough for a Guacodile to easily destroy using its rush attack. The only zombie to watch out is Boombox Zombie as he will stun Guacodile in its position but it will not be a problem as long as he is directly planted on the zombie.
