Sludgemato

Sludgemato is the first plant of Modern Day XL in Plants vs. Zombies 2 and the Dimensional DLC for it. It spits sludge which pierces through zombies and slows them down. Sludge is considered a straight shot like Peas, therefore it also hits Ice Blocks, Gravestones and more. The sludge also does 5nds at first, however it loses 0.5nds for every zombie it pierces before disappearing at ten zombies due to doing no damage anymore.

Overview
It absorbs 6nds before being eaten. Zombies which are unable to be slowed down by icy means can be slowed down by the sludge. This means that anti-freeze zombies are not immune.

It can be powered by Moonflower. When it is powered, its sludge leaves an aftermath after hitting a zombie. Its sludge drops slowing sludge in a 3x3 area whenever it hits a zombie, and this ultimately slows down every zombie it hits and more. It practically loses the slowing ability in trade for the dropped sludge which effects other rows. The dropped sludge stays for approximately a minute.

Strategies
Use it wisely. Its piercing shot is better than Cactus' but worse than Laser Bean. However, the increase in damage is great until it hits the 8th zombie where the damage will become regular. It's especially good against fast zombies.
