Revision as of 13:42, 8 August 2018 by CWJ-D(Message Wall | contribs)(If Tough Beets doesn't cost 6, then why is he even on this list? Also, I don't think that addition fits well here.)
He is based on a pumpkin, a round vegetable with smooth, slightly ribbed skin, and deep yellow to orange coloration. His mouth looks like one found in a jack-o-lantern, which is made by carving a pumpkin.
His name is a combination of "smashing," referring to the way he attacks, and "pumpkin," the real-life plant he is based on. It could quite possibly also be a reference to an American alternate rock band with a very similar name.

Strategies
With
Compared to other 6-sun plants, Smashing Pumpkin has no traits or abilities, but makes up with sheer strength. You can mass up more sun to play and play more Smashing Pumpkins more quickly.
Unfortunately, Smashing Pumpkin does not benefit from any synergy cards due to his tribe, which means that Smashing Pumpkin is on his own when facing zombies. Smashing Pumpkin also faces severe competition against other 6-sun plants like Three-Headed Chomper, Gravitree, and Super-Phat Beets, all of who always outperform him for the same price.
Against
Smashing Pumpkin hits very hard and is quite bulky, destroying or heavily damaging you or your zombies. It is best to destroy him with a trick like Rocket Science, Cut Down to Size, Locust Swarm, or B-flat, or use Deadly zombies. If he is in an environment or on the heights lane, Alien Ooze can destroy him. You can also make zombies with 5 or more do a bonus attack (including Trickster).
