Sans Underkale

Sans Underkale is an attacking Plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2.

Sans Underkale's main attack is summoning sprouts from the ground under Zombies. Sprouts are summoned every 2 seconds and deal 1 nds to all Zombies on the tile every .05 seconds for a total of 30 nds of damage before they disappear.

Every 10 attacks, Sans Underkale will instead summon an Aster Blaster which fires a powerful energy beam down the lane, dealing 100 nds to the first 5 Zombies it hits before disappearing.

Sans Underkale can also mess with Zombie's SOULs to keep them away from your house. First, when a Zombie is about to bite Sans, he will stick his arm out and throw that Zombie back 5 tiles. This has a cooldown of 10 seconds and cannot be used on Zombies that don't eat, such as Gargantuars. When there are flying Zombies on the screen, Sans can also point his arm towards the ground, causing the nearest flying Zombie to drop to the ground. This deals 40 nds of damage and causes the Zombie to lose its flight, with a cooldown of 15 seconds.

Finally, if 7 Plants die within a 5x3 area of Sans Underkale, he will temporarily go into Bad Time mode, receiving a glowing eye and a few buffs to his abilities. While in Bad Time mode, sprouts last twice as long, Aster Blasters are summoned every 5 attacks instead of 10, and all soul abilities have their cooldowns halved. Bad Time mode lasts for 20 seconds or until Sans Underkale is killed, and has a 30-second cooldown before it can be used again.

Origins:
Sans Underkale is based on kale, an edible leafy plant of the cabbage family and Sans, a major character in the indie RPG Undertale.

Plant Food:
When using a Plant Food, Sans Underkale summons a barrage of Aster Blasters around the strongest Zombie on-screen, then lifts up all Zombies on the screen and slams them down, damaging and stunning them for 3 seconds.

Strategies
Sans Underkale is a great jack-of-all-trades Plant, with crowd control, heavy damage, and stalling attacks all as part of his arsenal. Because of this, he is very good against levels with large varieties of Zombies, especially in Arena. His primary attack is also amazing against Chickens, as the damage happens quickly enough to basically guarantee that Chickens will be killed. However, his high cost and long cooldown make it hard to plant multiple on the field, so it is recommended to bring Gold Bloom for extra Sun and Power Lily to reset his cooldown. It is also a good idea to bring a weak Plant such as Puff-shroom to sacrifice as a way to activate Bad Time Mode easier, giving Sans Underkale a massive strength boost for a little while.

Trivia

 * His appearance uses sprites from Molekale, Coffee Zombie, and Zombie King.
 * It is BobertTheBoss's first (and probably last) creation on the Crossover Wiki
 * His almanac references San's three guard posts throughout the Underground, as well as Grillby's restaurant in Undertale.
 * All of Sans Underkale's abilities are based on the Sans fight in Undertale
 * - Sprouts are a replacement for the bones Sans uses to attack the player, and their ability to rapidly deal very low damage is a reference to how San's attacks ignore invincibility frames in Undertale.
 * - Aster Blasters are a direct reference to Gaster Blasters
 * - Sans Underkale's Plant Food ability is based on San's final attack, where he summons a barrage of Gaster Blasters that circle around the player before slamming their SOUL into the sides of the bullet board over and over to bring their health to 1.
