Zombies are hostile mobs that appear in two slightly different forms. The most common form closely resembles the player, and a less common form that resembles a villager may appear. The rarer form is called a Zombie Villager,
A Zombie Pigman is an irregular mob that spawns naturally in the Nether and appears in the Overworld near nether portals. One can also be created when lightning strikes within 3-4 blocks of a pig, which is a very rare occurrence. Like wild wolves, Zombie Pigmen are not initially hostile, but all Zombie Pigmen in the area will converge on the player if a single Zombie Pigman is attacked. This only applies to the player; mobs that provoke Zombie Pigmen will only be attacked by that specific Zombie Pigman. In the Pocket Edition, they are automatically hostile. Their texture is also slightly different.
