Coffee Bean - really popcap??? just give it a new function...

Gatling Pea - One of the best plants in PvZ, really surprised that it didn't make it. Actually, the latter two exist in the Chinese version of PvZ 2, the coffee bean waking up plants that were put to sleep (in a 3x3 area, to boot), and the Gatling Pea becoming a separate plant, with his own Plant Food power. Gatling Pea makes Pea Pod obsolete because Gatling Pea is more efficient in sun cost ( Gatling Pea costs 375 while 4 Headed Pea Pod costs  500 ) and has WAY, WAY better upgrades. This is because Gatling Pea is Legendary while Pea Pod is uncommon rarity. Not necessarily. First off, you're assuming that the PvZ2I Gatling Pea will be identical to the PvZ2C Gatling Pea. I've experienced pre-nerf Pharoh-like resistance to Chili Beans from Ponchos with grates in PvZ2C, and I don't think the Lightning Reed nerf went across the seas, so I don't see why Gatling Pea must cost 375 if it comes over. Second off, Pea Pods have a higher maximum Pea output, being 5. This can be major when combined with Torchwoods, eespecially Napalmed ones. Third off, the way it is grown can be different. Sure, Gold Bloom can make us jump up sun levels quickly, but that only happens a few times per game. Pea Pods can be built up slowly, over the course of the game, the same way normal sun-producers do, allowing a constant defense instead of being forced to rely on stallants to wait until we can have a decent defense. Gold Bloom is not in Chinese version. Also Gatling Pea's upgrades are better than Pea Pod's.

Here are upgrades.

Gatling Pea Level 2 Will sometimes also shoot 4 extra peas in diagonally in front (the range of these are the same starfruit's ones in the front)

Level 3: has higher chance to do this.

Level 5: Shoots "superpower peas" that deal good damage each and has higher chance to launch 4 extra peas to the sides.

Pea Pod Level 2: Grows a new head every minute.

Level 3 : Growth time reduced to 45 seconds.

A level 5 Gatling Pea deals more damage than a 5 Headed pea Pod at Level 4 even with Torchwood with Costumed PF. Also Lightning Reed's nerf is not in Chinese Version. Pea Pod's upgrades mean that you do not have to spend as much sun on them, making them far more cost efficient. Their Level 3 upgrade is 40 seconds, by the way. You are correct. Pea pod should have this in international version as upgrade. It will be useful if that happens.
