I explain in detail what each monthly special plant (not tied to any world) does from the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. Hope you learned something new!
FAQ
- How can I play this game?
Tutorial: • [NO LONGER WORKS] How ...
- Will you cover the other plants?
Yes, I'll do every plant in the game.
- Why is the sound quality so bad?
That's how the game is, there's nothing I can do about other than replace the music.

The formula for the Chinese plants seems to be:
Plant can do A, but has a chance to do B. As it levels up, the chances for B increase, and at level 5, B is enhanced or it gets C, effectively turning it into an unstoppable zombie killing machine.
You forgot that they all have a chance to get plant food when planted too
@@aiopnn427 Well that goes without saying but yes.
I will never take pvz international leveling for granted anymore. At least those kept the plant consistent on what it did. This feels like it adds way to much for a plants and this makes it confusing on what any plant is supposed to do.
Don't forget it has to recharge for 4.2069 seconds before attacking again
@@jossuecabrera8611 The international game may have its flaws with the leveling system, but it’s nowhere near as broken as PvZC, where plants can solo entire levels at level two.
Hammerflower: 150 sun cost. Fast recharge. Solos bucketheads.
Fishhook Grass: 150 sun cost. Fast recharge. Solos gargantuars.
Mangosteen: 150 sun cost. Fast recharge. Solos bucketheads.
Tigerstool: 250 sun cost. Slow recharge. Barely kills coneheads.
Chinese balancing!
Mangosteen was very unique but should have been 250 sun which i find stupid
15:14 mangosteen 1 shots garguntaurs at max level
@@zaidtariq8804 …no it doesn’t
8:49 I like seeing him explain the absurd knockback fishhook grass gets while the one in the 3rd lane is just 2 shotting gargs
Don't mind me, just going on a casual slaughter over here, pay more attention to my buddy at the bottom
fishhook grass is a mess of bugs. It does provide interesting strategies when you play zombie mode.
I like how they gave extremely boring plants stupidly strong abilities.
how the hell did they think 150 sun for the first two were balanced
@@passtheapplejuice2619 and too salt to injury they gave the plants with the really bad DPS a higher price
Idk I like it
Hello other blu team scout, want to help me get the intel from red, I need you to distract the sentries with bonk and I'll Finnish off the sentries with my direct hit
bruh, the original pvz 2 recent updates also boring
While these plants are cool, the issue I find most common in all of them is the plant food, they just do a generic "damage in 3x3 area" thing
the main game is at fault with this too, with very few plants having a power up that doesn’t amount to screen-clear or effective lane clear
The real issue is the fact that they used up all their existing ideas so when they make something “new” it’s just what another plant does but in a different way
@@symlordThe most interesting plants of the video were definitely the Tiger Stool and the Gardener Grass. They were also the weakest but their mechanics looked fun to play with. If only Gardener Grass could stun more Zombies.
@@symlordIt’s actually hardcode, apperently.
Exactly!! I was literally about to say, how many plants have unique plant food effects that isn’t damage in a 3x3 area, credit to gardener grass though at least it’s 2 3x3 areas effectively making it 3x5 (with middle lane doing double)
Fairly certain Gardener Grass' attack is also based on a childhood toy called a flywheel toy (and yes, it sounds just as annoying irl)
It would also make the costume and cute ish design make sense
"Monkey's head mushrooms"
"Lion's mane mushrooms"
*They make it a tiger*
Inb4 "chinese year celebration", they could've chose an another plant
@@burner555 They already had a Monkey's Head Plant, so honestly it's not an issue.
They made Fishhook a plant that is at it's strongest when it is unable to perform its main ability.
That Gardener Grass looks good for Frostbite Caves tbh, even without fire, it can free itself making it immune to freeze, literally.
how? it can only unfreez it self if it was attack which will likely not happen bc it will get snip
@@noooo2310 chopping ice?
mangosteen looks adorable and we must protect him at all costs
The smeeper
what a beauty are these plants!exception for the fishing hook plant
Why
12:49 The reason why Mangosteen attack 6 times before resting is because this plant needs to attack IN A ROW without left idling for too long (for a few seconds) before the cooldown. If Mangosteen don’t attack in a row, the number of maximum attack require for a cooldown will be reset.
The Tigerstool looks so goofy, I love it
It looks like it's the worst plant to spam visually, but practically, is only good if spammed.
@@mkks4559 its like lighting reed. Bad alone, strong in number
@@KinDiedYesterday but almost all plants if spammed is good..
@@Serving_Cvnt we dont talk about this. Lighting reed user need their coping mechanism available
It makes me think of Happy Tree Friends for some reason
Fishhook grass honestly sounds super fun imo. I feel like it would be better balanced if the fish hook did very weak damage and the damage from the zombies depends on its toughness so bucketheads would deal more damage than basics
The loud sound effects was definitely one of the reasons I almost never played with sound on. Plants and zombies in the Chinese version were/are either really quiet for me or so loud that your ears would hurt after a couple minutes with seemingly little in-between.
9:06 very interesting, but I can’t help but notice that they are 2 shot gargs like it nothing.
Is nobody gonna talk about how Hammer Flower just summons Thor's Mjolnir for his Plant Food? This dude is cookin' 😂
Lol
Are we gonna talk about Mangosteen’s description though?
@@superduperperrywhat about it?
@@Sunneh2013 It says “ Everytime Mangosteen swears, it is on the condition of being struck by thunder. “ This confirms that plants can talk and say swear words.
@@superduperperry "i hope you get no water" -Mangosteen
When we needed him most, he finally returned! I missed this series buddy!
It has been a month but sure
@@Circle2947 a month, 4 weeks, 30 days, 730 hours, 43829 minutes, 2629743 seconds, 2.62974383 × 1027 zeptoseconds, a lot of time

@@Berlinh2 you wot, mate?
@@Berlinh2 you're one to talk. Hypocrite.
Legends says the bug bot is still stunned
I kind of dig Fishhook Grass' ability. It has knockback, can work around its recharge by stunning at working from long-range, and is kinda like Fisherman Zombie the plant.
Mangosteen doesn't seem cohesive at all, but tigerstool and gardener grass are funny, and sound like cool concepts if nothing else.
21:53 bro really pulled a Black Knight "Tis but a scratch"
I love watching gargs die in two hits over and over while the clip was focused on the fishing guy’s knockback at max level
PART TEN LETS GO
You make me very happy when you upload this series
And I'm happy to hear that :)
It's funny how at around 2:46, the word balanced is flying out of view, which would mean the joke of Hammer Flower's balancing being out of the frame
9:00
This feature reminds me of one particular level in Just Shapes and Beats...
19:10 This looks so cute, even though the attack type is buzzsaw
Gardener Grass sounds like she would go great with Mega Gatling Pea and Iceweed!
and inferno!
And almost any other plants
Gardener Grass could also work well with any good melee plant.
I would like it noted that I think Tigerstool's level 5 ability, although exceedingly rare, is broken. "10% of the target's max health each second, for 10 seconds" So if this funny little mushroom were to poison a zombie, it's name is already written on a gravestone they are not raising out of.
Does this work on bosses? Please say it does not.
@@Thiago_Rodrigues30 Honestly, knowing this game? It probably does.
(I’m judging all of these on their Level 1 versions BTW)
Hammer Flower looks like a really good plant, but if it was in the International Version, I don’t really see myself using it much. That’s mainly because outside of Celery Stalker (And to an extent Wasabi Whip), I’ve never really cared about the melee plants that much. Also it’s design is kinda boring (Nothing about it screams “Flower”, he looks more like a beanstalk to me).
Fishhook Grass, meanwhile, is a melee plant I vibe with a lot. Has a fun gimmick and I see it being pretty helpful against high HP zombies like Gargs.
Mangosteen is a plant I really like on paper, seeing as it’s basically what I wanted Phat Beet to be (A high DPS 3x3 AOE Plant ala Gloom-shroom from PVZ 1). But in execution… yeesh, that 30 second cooldown is a major turn off. I get it’s there to prevent it from being even more broken than PVZ 1 Gloom-sheoom, but I feel like there were better ways to handicap it (Like turning down its damage a bit or completely dropping the stun gimmick).
Tigerstool has a fun design and animations, but everything about it just screams “Snapdragon but worse”.
Lastly there’s Gardener Grass, and tbh I don’t really know if it’s good or not. That being said it just looks fun to use. The animation of it stunning zombies looks really goofy and I’d see myself running it just for the fun of it.
The fishhook grass is as powerful as the fisherman zombie
Awesome
Flag, this series always makes my day better. Thanks so much for the great content. Keep it up!
Is that
@@corrupie HI MR CORRUPT FROM GEOMETRY SUCKS 7
@@Scribblemations NO I AM NOT
The Mangosteen is so fucking cute for some reason 😂❤
I just love the cute attack animation
fish hook grass is just an anouther example of chomper being powercrept, longer range, attacks zombies while doing so and will not alway be on cooldown after its attack
Fun fact: Gardener glass can stun zombies that gain buff from fairytale forest fog which is weird since normal stun won't work for them (sry for rough grammar😂😂😂)
Huh thats good to know
YESSS... ive been waiting for this video for so long!!
love your videos so much,keep em up!
Thank you again for these videos and for putting so much effort into them.👍
Been a while since you did one of these
Glad that we got another overanalyzing video
“He’s mildly annoyed.”
-Flag Zombie, 2023
He's angery but not really
Can't believe we're already this far into this series.
Feels like they mixed up the growth timer and the cooldown timer on Mangosteen. His growth ignores the resting period yet the growth happens like 3x as fast as the default rest timer. I could see leveling making the plant grow faster so it’s stronger quicker; similar to other multi-stage plants.
It is always a good day when a new overanalysing video comes out.
Omg just perfect timing it came out love your content 😊
Yoo, every episode of overanalyzing is awesome :D
Cool video as always 🎉
All plants that i wanted to see grouped up in one episode, nice
Fun fact: According to mangosteen's almanac description, plants know and can say swear words
Been waiting for this thanks!
Edit:I love your videos
YAY!! I MISSED THESE TYPES OF VID OF URS!!💚💚💚
Thanks for these as always , never fail yo entertain me ^^
tbh the fishing hook grass should be called the fishing reel
This series is amazing and so addicting ❤
21:56 this is normal. Hunter zombies are just like this.
he always come when least expected - Flag Zombie... with another nice video!
This series is super addicting ! Keep up the good work .
I really like the sound design on hammer flower, it sounds like they literally just dropped a rock on the floor and used it.
You know it's a good time when you post❤
Your dedicated to your work as I can see…I respect that
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR THIS VID
best pvz channel. Also you gotta love the music!
Thank you!
*sees Tigerstool* I liked it when plants vs zombies was about... You know... Plants and zombies...
I was excited to see the Rubble Trubble theme, love it!!!
Hey also, I just downloaded Chinese version about last Friday, and I don’t know what zombies can do. And I watch your video and it help a lot, so I decided to sub you
Glad I helped!
Hammer flower literally summons Thor's hammer💀
I'm in love with the hammer flower sound effects
Finally another overanalysing video!
19:12 that conehead be hittin the griddy tho
It would be pretty fun to see modders incorporate some of the Chinese plants into their game and see how they balance/rework these plants, especially since I don't like how some plants gain abilities that have a chance to pop up by leveling, especially lv 5 that gives the plant abilities they don't need. Alterniz did a pretty good job with maypop. Maybe one mod could bring the bearberry motar and make it a tap to use plant like cocnut cannon. What are your thoughts?
What’s maypop
@@grapeguy6843 a custom plant from a mod of pvz 2 that works differently than its Chinese version.
It's impossible they are way too custom to just do it in a mod but if they did they also have to take account for balancing
Some plants would have to be reworked completely lest it be too similar to your average peashooter
Also hard-coded stuff is frankly impossible to work around for some of these abilities
You'd find more luck with a remade game
Or just similar sprites but different abilities because vanilla limitations for custom things
@@LUCAS420BLZ honestly, reworking a plant from the ground up seems like a better idea from a coders perspective.
I'm so glad there's more
I like Keep it up my man
Your videos are very good to watch
We love these videos since we dont see them anywhere else pls make more🥰🥰
YES HOORAY FOR PT 10
I have Gardener Grass, and she is very fun to use lol, I use her in almost all my loadouts for the lols, her sound is horrifying but I play mute most of the time so im fine lol
how do you get the china ver?
Finally part 10 coming😊
Gardener's grass Just straight up makes the zombies twerk
The Chinese version of pvz2 feels like one big public beta testing area, hence why so much seems incredibly janky and broken
PS: fishhook grass' mechanic is incredibly goofy and I love it
The king has returned :')
I swear some of these plants can survive like 10 waves without dying
Omg part 10 is out!
9:58 Sunday Edition got a mind of its own thanks to Fishing Hook Grass. XDD
If Mangosteen is called "Mangostun" instead it suits it better
Longg timee waiting for this overanalyzing plantt...🥰🥰🥰🥰
enfinnnnnn ca faisait si longtemps
7:25 Other plants: well thank you...😐⚰️
21:46 "But his hate didn't let him go"
Gargantuars: I fear no man, but that THING… *insert Fishhook Grass here* It scares me.
12:50 I think it’s because the Mangosteen lost its target (it stopped attacking) and then it began attacking again.
So it attacked twice, lost target. The countdown resets. Attack 4 times. So you get 6.
Tigerstool looks so hilarious!
This game is clearly the pinnacle of hame design with mo broken features or broken features whatsoever
I would just like to compliment your exquisite music taste
Thank you!
I love this series
I'd say Tigerstool's poison attack is actually pretty balanced, being really powerful, but also really rare
Gardenee grass's rest time is increased after launching a level 5 sawblade bc it starts ehen she trows it not when it expires so she can attack after the normal 5 seconds after it ends
20:25 the most inefficient way to kill chickens! Haha!
This game has more plant species than irl
I'm so glad you have music to cover the absolutely disgusting sound Gardener Grass makes
Good job.
Tiger stool and tiger grass are very different
who said they weren't
I think the 20 second rest time of Level 5 Gardener Grass is due to her being idle for the 15 seconds the sawblade lasts, since it's basically doing the work for her; other than that, her rest time remains 5 seconds from Level 3
Huh. Wonder if Fishhook Grass could combo with Melee Plants. Maybe if it held back the zombie a bit longer
