Biography[]
When Dave and Zomboss were Brothers, they went to the same college apparently Crazy Dave snatched First Place in a Science contest from Zomboss who seems to hold a Little bit of Grudge against Dave maybe not that little, because he indicated with an arrow with the Word "cheat", some how this is a sad story or Maybe that they cheated on the Science fair, in the Photo dave is holding a Peashooter was in fact it makes him The Creator and it makes sense as throughout the Plants he Sells them are modified Persons for the better of Plants they already have, however if Zomboss is mad at him, there's a chance that they stole his idea and this Betrayal would've explain their entity.
