It is like in some Frankenstein movies where the good doctor takes the arm of a corpse and reanimates it with electricity. It is undeath. They reform into Gem zombie limbs.

As such, shattering is death to Gems as it utterly destroyes the individual. The remaining shards will never ever be able to be put back together and the Gem reforming again. The fact that it leaves their "body parts" still animated in the forms of shards just makes it even more disturbing...

And it makes "Secret Team" quite horrific, too. So, you're saying that zombie gems exist?

Well, not really. A "living" Gem can't be zombified or anything, it is just that when they get shattered their "body parts" keep on truckin' much like a classic Romero zombie.

You do have the Gem Mutants though which pretty much are Gem Frankenstein's Monsters, and I guess one could argue that the monster could technically be considered a zombie. Sort of. Yeah.
