- For other uses, see Z-Mech (disambiguation).
Z-Mech is a zombie that can only be found in Arena in Plants vs. Zombies 2. He will advance to the 7th column while in an invulnerable force field, and when spawned will crush any plant that he is on with his mecha suit. After reaching the 7th column, he will summon Jetpack Zombies or Blastronaut Zombies around him, and will also summon several Bug Bot Imps at random columns, lanes, and tiles, and will target a random plant with a missile similar to that used by Dr. Zomboss. After a while, he will leave the lawn.
It also can not be slowed or stunned by any plant except E.M.Peach.

- Due to a glitch, he can teleport defeated zombies close to the player's house.
- When he is defeated for the third time, the charred imp animation has the imp with no pupils.
- He has the most health out of all the zombies, excluding Dr. Zomboss' Zombots, absorbing 14000 damage.
- The disco ball satellite he displays when he summons Bug Bot Imps is similar to the Disco-tron 3000's.
