This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the community. From the gradual unveiling of newcomers ahead of the game's launch, to players developing firm views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's a lot for enthusiasts to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was nearly chosen for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes Aries much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful ally; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed passion for treats. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of chatter to those who wish to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems very similar to a people-smart Gemini.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a intense sign known for frequently getting absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its capability to make a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select Pyroar for the lion of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly mirrored across this creature's whole lineage, from a always surprised face like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s just like the symbol a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic being, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are many Libras who would probably appreciate Super Audino's abilities. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to worry even more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became sentient through pure resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to predict calamities in advance? That gives the identical energy as a Goat, who often consistently believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire sign that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
