Sort of, actually. It starts out sort of like a flattened rose, similar to a shovel as you have repetitively suggested, then it turns into a circular mass of petals near the end of the spear, then blooms open like a laser light cannon, and fires light like Pearl's projectile, or bubbles or seeds like Rose. So yes, a shovel.
