Primary weapon[]

The Rock Pea's primary weapon is the Rock Shot, which has 8 ammo. It deals 22.2 - 32.2 impact damage, and with the Damage Upgrade, it deals 23.2 - 34.2 impact damage depending on the distance. It also deals slightly higher splash damage than default Peashooter (12 compared to Stock's 10), but fires 10% slower and they'll divert if you move horizontally or jump with Hyper.

Abilities[]

Left abilities
Chili Bean Bomb	The Zombies often confuse the Chili Bean with Brainz, racing to eat it. It has a short fuse and deals massive damage to all nearby Zombies.
Sombrero Bean Bomb	Nothing says "hot" like a Chili Bean wearing a sombrero! The fuse is quite long, but the damage is mighty impressive. Timing is the key with this fun friend.
Dark Bean Bomb	These Dark Bean Bombs come in pairs. Perfect when you toss out a Bean, and then immediately need to toss out another!
Center abilities
Pea Gatling	The Peashooter can dig into the ground and root himself in place, turning himself into a Pea Gatling. He can deal more damage, but is vulnerable to attack.
Retro Gatling	Retro Pea Gatling uses the ancient Peashooter techniques of manually cranking out peas. Although it has a slower rate of fire, the peas are ancient and far more damaging.
Bling Gatling	Bling Gatling Pea spits out sparkly bling peas, and he looks great doing it!
Right abilities
Hyper	When a Peashooter uses his Hyper ability, he will not only run incredibly fast, but can also jump extremely high.
Super Pea Jump	The Super Pea Jump allows the Peashooter to get atop places he was unable to reach before, but at the tradeoff of speed.

Strategies[]

Rock Pea trades damage, movement, ammo, rate of fire, and has projectile diversion for health, which is not a useful Peashooter benefit. However, he can be treated as default Peashooter, as he's quite similar to him. The best advice is to try not to Pogo Pea with him, as the projectile diversion can make it difficult. Additionally, Pea Gatling can take advantage of his extra health, as his extra health pairs very well with the armor provided by the ability.

Balancing changes[]

Trivia[]

His ammo capacity is the same as that of the Berry Shooter.
- In addition to that, his primary weapon behaves similarly to how the Berry Shooter's primary weapon (the Berry Blast) would.
His trailer shows him using two gestures.
- The first has him dancing in a fashion similar to the "Sprinkler" move, ending with a move that resembles the form of a surfer while surfing. It is the new "Break it Down" gesture. However, the audio used is from the first game's gesture "Happy Dance."
- The second is the "Aloha" gesture from the first game.
His peas could sometimes knock zombies back, similar to Primal Peashooter. However, it has been confirmed in the Trouble in Zombopolis: Part One DLC patch notes that this was a glitch.
He bears a resemblance to Ben Grimm, known as The Thing, from Fantastic Four.
It can be considered that the Rock Pea, is the replacement of the Berryshooter and answer From The Plants to the Astronaut.
