Pineapple Smash

Pineapple Smash is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2. He attacks by attacking the closest zombies with his flail. He attacks once every 1.5 seconds, dealing 10 damage per shot per hit.

Origins
He is based on the pineapple (Ananas comosus), a tropical plant with edible multiple fruit. His name is based on the fact that he smashes his enemies with his flail, and "pineapple," the real-life plant he is based on.

Almanac
Note: The stats shown below only apply to Level 1.

Plant Food effect
When given Plant Food, Pineapple Smash causes an earthquake with his flail that knocks all nearby zombies back, dealing 200 damage per shot over a few seconds.

Enforce-mint effect
When boosted by Enforce-mint, Pineapple Smash will do an additional 100 DPS per hit, and his Plant Food effect does an additional 100 DPS per tick.

Level upgrade
*Per hit. Its Plant Food effect deals a total of 25 hits.

Strategies
Compared with the rest of the plants that can be found in Lost City, Pineapple Smash outranks these plants in both in sun and strength. A major disadvantage of using this plant is that it can only be used once each level, therefore, wasting a high amount of sun that the player can lose due to Pineapple Smash getting eaten. However, he can easily hold off zombies with spikes on his body that deal 10 damage per shot, making him a great defensive plant to use against them.

Pineapple Smash's Plant Food ability is very efficient due to the fact that it knockbacks all zombies on the map. This allows the player to easily stop the zombies from getting into the Player's House.

Trivia

 * Pineapple Smash was slightly retooled from a scrapped pineapple-based plant that was going to be used for Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars.
