Armor Chomper 

This armored variant ahs the most health of any plant in the game with the upgrade, 225. It’s a bit slower than the other variants to balance out the health. Upgrades - Iron Stomach, Emptied Pockets, Balanced Breakfast. Iron Stomach - Decreases digestion time. Emptied Pockets - Increases movement speed. Balanced Breakfast - Increases health. Stats Ammo - N/A Reload - N/A Damage Type - Bite/Swallow/Yum! Range - Melee This variant does have more health, but the decreased speed still makes it lower on the list of Chompers to use. If you’d like the extra health, then go for it, but the reduced speed can hurt more in the end.
