Rocket Zombie

The Rocket Zombie is a zombie appearing in Plants vs. Zombies Adventures. It travels faster than most other zombies and has higher toughness while it has its rocket. However, once it is destroyed, it travels at normal speed and has the toughness which is sightly higher than regular zombie. The rocket instantly goes away if the zombie is hit with a Snow Pea's or Ice Queen Pea's projectile.

Strategies
Rocket Zombies make a noise when they enter the battle that sounds like a rocket going off. This helps to notify the player about the zombie and to urge them to prepare their defenses against the zombie. Given the fact that the Snow Pea is given to the player before getting to Killjoy Park level 1, the first level the zombie appears in, it can easily be used against it during the levels it appears in. Both being slowed down and having its health reduced to that of a regular zombie will greatly help the player, as the zombie's threat lowers to that of a regular zombie, which is not much.

If Snow Peas are out of the option, such as busy attacking other zombies, using ZombiFreeze on this zombie until it dies is suggested. Cherry Bomb or Jalapeño will also solve the problem, but the long harvest time for either makes excessive use a bad idea. Zombie Zappers can be used on large groups of Rocket Zombies to help defenses even with sufficient Snow Peas kill these zombies.
