You have to do real life references next. For instance, if you go to Egypt, you can find pyramids in the Cairo area that are *clearly* a reference to the first world in PVZ2.

Once a person told me: go outside and touch some grass. Then when I did I realised it's a reference to PvZ first game. There were also grass and the lawn. Very smart way to intend a reference into a real world!

[@crushcastles23]

In Magic the Gathering, there's a card named Grave Bramble, which came out in a set with a ton of Zombies, which is a plant with protection from Zombies. Not technically PVZ, but there's also a card called Genesis Hydra, which was made by George Fan, creator of PVZ.

[@Heatherlynn1972Vid]

Worth noting, the artwork of Genesis Hydra depicts a Plant Hydra trampling over some skulls and a zombie arm, a nod to PvZ as well

[@terriblewaistcoat9682]

There’s also The Necrobloom from the MH3 set which makes plants and zombies

[@crimson-cloud]

Few references you missed in the plants vs. corpses entry: Gardens and Graveyards is the name of the objective based capture mode in the garden warfare mode The great pyramids, pirate infested seas, and wild west is a PvZ2 reference, as those are the first 3 worlds

14:09 to clarify the gatling pea appears in the section of recommended characters where the viewers can submit their characters to the show and this happens in a lot of episodes so it is most likely that this was not intentional by the creators themselves and its just a submission by a random viewer

[@mikedoesthings2134]

tbf they still had to actively make a design for the character, since the only thing that you have to provide when recommending a character is its name, so they had to at least get the reference

[@Megacooltommydee]

You can thank me for that.

[@davidpereira5969]

In Slay the Spire, there is a common relic named "Happy flower" that's a potted sunflower and it gives you 1 energy every 3 turns Enter the Gungeon's Pea shooter might be a reference because it has a synergy with cactus, and the pea shooter description says "Traditionally given to Gungeoneers when they first arrive at the Gungeon. It is incredibly weak. ". Description is kinda vague given how pea shooter can be a name for any weak weapon

[@76i-z4v]

[@Fewix_]

2:57 I guess it's because Zomboni is a brand. That's why it has such a weird description in almanac in pvz

14:34 To clarify things: The Pea Shooter gun is most likely just a reference to the blowgun/weak guns in general, but it has a synergy "Pea Cannon" that is a reference to PvZ. The synergy makes the gun function like Peashooters primary fire in Garden Warfare and the synergy itself is with various plant themed items such as the Cactus, Mahoguny, and Broccoli.

[@luongmaihunggia]

7:41 "Octogeddon was created by George Fan, a reference to how plants vs zombies was created by George Fan"

[@everythingpizzaandknuckles6268]

The sentence in 5:00 is a reference to worlds in PvZ 2: Ancient Egypt, Pirate Seas and Wild West

The game Nirvana has a zombie event (or maybe it was DLC? I forgot) where you can buy plants to protect yourself from the zombies. I'm surprised the wiki missed that lol

[@philippel.r.3426]

In Mystia's Izakaya there's a PVZ reference where in a DLC, Yuuka talks about cherry bombs and maybe some other things I forgot. And it's all because somebody made a joke to the developper where they said that the ending concert in Mystia Izakaya looked like the ending concert in PVZ1

13:25 the soldier also has a cosmetic called the stainless pot which could be a reference to crazy dave

[@Agoraphobia2763]

14:09 , thats a recommended character, which are characters recommended by viewers (duh), so it doesn't really qualify as a reference by the show, as its a viewer doing it

[@lieutenantlobster_gorbman]

One thing about battle cats that could possibly be a reference is that there's a cat called maize cat that then evolves into cone cat. However the cat doesn't target zombie enemies so it could also just be a coincidence.

[@maglev0789]

Cone Cat is also a pun on how similar "corn" and "cone" sound (especially in Japanese) which further makes it unlikely

[@freddybonnette1229]

The Left 4 Dead refrence states one thing, Crazy Dave may have the plants defending him, but he knows to stay strapped.

heres a reference i know of! In the game Soul knight prequel, you can fight a peashooter enemy that resembles a peashooter with a few notable differences such as it having an orange head and yellow eyes, killing it has a chance of dropping a dual gun weapon under the same name which is just 2 peashooters that shoot peas.
