Nightcap

Nightcap is an upcoming plant found in the code for Plants vs. Zombies 2. She attacks zombies by throwing poisonous stars at zombies, these stars are able to pierce through multiple targets in a similar manner to her Plants vs. Zombies 3 appearance. She also hides when zombies get to close to her, in a similar manner to Scaredy-shroom from the original Plants vs. Zombies.

Short description

Shoots poison stars.

Almanac entry

Nightcap shoots piercing poisonous stars down the lane and withdraws into a toxic stealth mode when zombies get too close.

Special: avoids most zombie attacks

Nightcap's always had a keen sense for justice, back from when she was a tiny spore watching late-night ninja movies instead of concentrating on her mycology homework.

Iceweed

Iceweed is an upcoming plant found in the code for Plants vs. Zombies 2. He appears to be an ice version of Spikeweed, damaging zombies from below and being immune to being eaten, with the added benefit of being immune to Frostbite Caves' freezing winds, much like Cold Snapdragon.

Short description

Damage and chill.

Almanac entry

Iceweeds damage and chill zombies that walk over them.

Special: can't be eaten by zombies
Special: immune to freezing winds

Iceweed is excited to get the call-up to the big leagues and can't wait to start refrigerating zombies whilst inflicting damage on them. He insisted we say "whilst."

It is a fact that everyone loves clowns, and zombies, and therefore clown zombies.

Carnie Buckethead

You're going to want to keep an eye out for that monkey.

Launches daredevil carnie imps high above the crowds.

The cannon's not such a big deal, but the imps it fires? Yeesh.

Often launched from carnie cannons.

At the same time, though, you wouldn't want to bet your life on these guys only coming out of cannons.

They're not actually twins, though they are identical.

Firebreather Zombie

Almanac entry

Always safety-conscious, Firebreather Zombie only breathes fire when there are things nearby that burn easily. That's not all he's confused about, either.

Magician Zombie

Magician Zombie vanishes zombies and himself forward on the board, and he's got sneaky doves who'll try to fly off with your plants.

He's such an evil magician that he'll reveal all his secrets for a shiny nickel.

Stiltwalker Zombie

Almanac entry

Stiltwalker Zombie's stilts allow him to walk right over most plants.

At such a towering height, Stiltwalker Zombie has an elevated view of things. He refuses, for example, to buy second-hand milk.
