By custom zombies do you mean zombies with custom textures or with full spritesheets or just special zombies in levels? If the former, I have seen recolored zombies on some channels way back when Mark used to post custom plants. Also, I have seen the last one where all Imps to come out an Imp Cannon are all Dragon Imps (I think ADVENT has made such things). The middle one I haven't seen. I mean a separate zombie with its own stats and abilities, plus its own textures. A seperate whole new zombie would require coding it from scratch which will crash the game as the data for the zombie doesn't exist in the config files. Not to mention, since the servers for PopCap won't be able to match the data with their own (as the data won't exist on their side), it's very well possible that the zombie might get deleted from the game after a reboot if someone starts it with Internet connection. Not only is that very difficult but also time consuming. I am not gonna argue if it's possible or not for players but it's certainly difficult.

If custom plant exists, then custom zombie can exist too. You are right about all this, cuz that plant was glitchy, had no PF effect and got removed later, but the fact that it existed proves the possibility of custom zombie existance.
