- Not to be confused with Power Toss from Plants vs. Zombies 2.
Flick-a-Zombie was an unused undroppable common plant superpower trick card in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes and wasn't a member of any class. It cost 1
to play, and its ability did 1 damage to a selected zombie or the zombie hero. Its zombie counterpart was Flick-a-Plant.
Flick-a-Zombie, along with the other neutral superpowers, got scrapped in update 1.2.11, as superpowers became bounded to heroes.
Origins
It is based on a brown gardening glove.
Just like Whack-a-Zombie, or its zombie counterpart, Flick-a-Plant, its name may be a reference to an arcade game where a player must need a hitting medium to hit something couple of times in order to win.
Its description alludes to a saying when a pet (e.g. dog) does something that an owner does not want to do.

Strategies
With
This trick can be played anytime. It can be played early on in the game to destroy early weaker zombies like Tennis Champ, Cuckoo Zombie, and Unlife of the Party. Saving this for late-game as a last-ditch resort could do if your opponent has 1 health left.
Against
This trick is very weak, so it loses its power quickly in the mid-to-late-game. You shouldn't be affected too much, unless you are in a terrible situation.

Trivia
- It looks similar to the Power Toss from Plants vs. Zombies 2, except that Power Toss throws zombies off-screen while this trick damages zombies.
- Grave Mistake reuses its card design.
- The card border hides the fact that the zombie's hands are disembodied with no arms, and a third hand where it would normally be on Zombie.
- Interestingly, those hands seem to use the same sprites as Rustbolt's hands.
