The Planters, formerly known as the Pavers are robotic paving machines used by Paisley Paver and Rex. They first appeared in the Season 4 episode "Spirit Bear (episode)" and have since then, appeared in almost every episode that Paisley appears as the villain. Following Paisley's redemption in Season 7, the Pavers have been rebuilt into Planters with help from Aviva Corcovado.
Appearance[]
Pavers are shaped like a cube and look like a steam roller. In the episode "Spirit Bear (episode)" they have at the front of them robotic arms that extend forever just like Zach's Zachbots. But in the "Elephant Brains!" they have a shovel attached at the front of the machine.
Paisley most often uses her Pavers to help her to build buildings and getting the animals out of her away. She also uses them to defend herself and Rex from the Wild Kratts especially in combat with Chris and Martin in their Creature Power Suit.
As of "Activate Kid Power", the Pavers have been rebuilt into Planters with Aviva's help. The Planters are similar to the Pavers’ old design, but without the steam roller; they could hover over, around, and stay in place, have robotic arms that are on the sides of them now, have a container to carry plants inside, and on the top of the Planter; there is a small sit that Paisley can sit on it.
Abilities[]
Pavers can roll using their roller, to pursue beside Paisley and paving the creatures' habitat.
They are use to help construct Paisley's buildings and also act like a power clean machine.
They can fit inside of Paisley's Boat or even inside of her Cargo Plane.
Weaknesses[]
A weakness is poor tactics. When they facing the Kratt brothers, simply just charge at them, only to be turned into scrap metal by using rocks as shown in the episode "Spirit Bear (episode)" and even with a I-Beams as a baseball bat shown in the episode "Elephant Brains!", even if they outnumber the Kratt brothers.
A second weakness is they can easily be crushed, although this may be questionable, as only creatures with tremendous strength have been able to do this, like the Spirit Bears or Asian Elephants.
