Plants vs. Zombies: Infinite Generation/Unused & Scrapped Content

This page documents unused and scrapped concepts and content for Plants vs. Zombies: Infinite Generation.

Original Designs
The designs and concepts that make up the crossover aspect of Infinite Generation were originally meant to be genericized; this was dropped when it proved untenable.

Origin of the EXA System
The EXA System was originally created by exposing the Extreme Gundam to a pod full of energy which would have later been revealed to been a containment field for the energy fired by the Herotron. This part of the story was replaced with the character Rey due to the ambiguous nature of how the Herotron actually affects machines in canon, along with a plot hole in how the energy could actually be contained if all integral aspects of the project were considered lost in the explosion.

World of Turmoil Inhabitants
The main characters of the World of Turmoil were originally intended to be characters from stories and art by ZePeaWithZeGoggles, Stwolfgang "Peas" Ambrose, and TURBOPOWERED.

The World of Turmoil itself was meant to be a union of the two universes established by all three authors. ZPWZG's characters would be post-plot, while Ambrose's characters would be placed in an ambiguous time period between the penultimate and final installments of their stories. Some narrative details were removed or shifted to maintain coherency.

All of this was cut due to glaring ethical concerns regarding usage. This iteration of the world is still reflected in LEAF-Prime's encoded name for the world, dubbed TURBO-010.

Currently, the cut characters are intended to be at least partially replaced with similar, but originally-designed characters.

Tass's Hazard Armor
Tass Ilo was intended to upgrade his Rider form into the Hazard Armor using the Hazard Trigger during the events of The Dark Mirror campaign, shifting his entire Infinite Robot's frame to the Gundam Astraea Type F Black's in the process. Its usage would carry all the boosts and drawbacks of Kamen Rider Build's original Hazard Body, granting vastly increased power at the cost of the unit's systems locking out Tass's input and turning into a silent killing machine.

Tass's use of the Hazard Armor was scrapped to avoid overrepresenting his character; it is now exclusively used by Gauss before he creates the Evol Driver.

Old Personal Units
Viri Melissa was originally intended to use the Earthree armor instead of the Marsfour armor; this was changed due to the former being too generic for the representative of a high-speed class.

Other Heroes
Some fanmade heroes for Plants vs. Zombies Heroes were considered for the World of Heroes' inhabitants. They were cut for similar reasons to the initial draft of the World of Turmoil.
