- For the plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 that the line is based on, see Shadow-shroom.
The Poison Shadow line (毒影系; pinyin: dú yǐng xì) is a Class S Tenacious plant line in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars which was introduced in the 1.0.104 update, alongside Neon Mixtape Tour.
The line consists of Poison Tongue Mushroom (毒舌菇; pinyin: dú shé gū), Sepsis Mushroom (血毒菇; pinyin: xuè dú gū), and Shadow-shroom (毒影菇; pinyin: dú yǐng gū). They all specialize in spreading negative effects and attack by spitting poison.
Origins
All members of the Poison Shadow line are based on the Shadow-shroom from Plants vs. Zombies 2, albeit in different colors and appearances.
The middle evolution shares the exact same appearance as Shadow-shroom, and the final evolution shares its name and costumed appearance.
Poison Tongue Mushroom's name ,"毒舌菇", is a pun on "毒舌" (lit. "poison tongue"), which is an a term used to describe a spiteful or sarcastic remark, or someone who is harsh and belittling in their statements or tone. Poison Tongue Mushroom's name takes on a literal interpretation of a "poison tongue", as Poison Tongue Mushroom literally spits poison at zombies, and its attack animation involves it sticking its tongue out.

Trivia
- This is the only line in the game to have wrath generation as their soulmates boost.
- Due to a glitch, Shadow-shroom lacks its hat in-game, appearing more like Sepsis Mushroom.
- Interestingly, the drop of poison that is supposed to be on the hat still remains, and still reacts and animates as though the hat is still there.
- Shadow-Shroom has its costume from the International version of PVZ2.
