Flag Zombie (Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare)

For the other uses, see Flag Zombie (disambiguation).

Flag Zombie is a Spawnable Zombie in Gardens & Graveyards in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. Its plant counterpart is the Flag Weed. Once spawned, it tracks down zombies, gives a 7% speed boost to them in Garden Warfare, and a defense boost in the sequel, even in Garden Ops Mode (this includes all zombie heroes but does not pertain to any boss except the Disco Zombie). Because they are faster than the other zombies, they warn the player about a huge wave of zombies similarly to what they did in Plants vs. Zombies. This can potentially be a slightly bigger threat, although it is relatively weak. Its attack is named Flag Whack, and each whack deals 15 damage.

Health
