Satellite Dish Zombie

The Satellite Dish Zombie is the sixth and final new zombie encountered in The Moon. The zombie has a large satellite dish sticking out of his chest that absorbs damage from grounded attacks, reflects lasers and sonic booms, and blocks fumes.

Suburban Almanac Entry
When the zombies weren’t getting any reception on the moon, all their names were put into a hat and Satellite Dish Zombie’s name was pulled out. So he went to fix the satellite dish. To this day, no zombie knows the story of what happened to Satellite Dish Zombie. All they know is, it didn’t end well. There was still no reception.

Strategies
The Satellite Dish Zombie is a very dangerous zombie, as it blocks many attacks that cause damage to multiple zombies. Reflected laser beams and sonic booms are sent diagonally upwards and do not damage zombies. A few plants that can strike the Satellite Dish Zombie are catapult plants, Lightning Reed and Homing Thistle. As the moon is set at night, it is ideal to use Pult-shroom due to its low cost and one-tile splash damage. Insta-kills, in particular the Cherry Bomb, could also be used to get rid of Satellite Dish Zombies. Brute force can be used to destroy the satellite dish, but if Fugitive Zombies are in the level, Sonic-shroom would be a part of the player's defence. Therefore, it is ideal to design your strategy to bypass the satellite dish.
