This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the fandom. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the title's release, to players forming strong views on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that emphasize their personalities, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with zodiac signs? The following is inspired by a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was nearly chosen for Aries, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why the Ram much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Stay on the friendly side of either and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its regular and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their fondness for sweet tree sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless stream of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to envision Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a passionate symbol known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge amount of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to create a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Fans were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion offers to the table. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting signals from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this gentle, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how people are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpio adores karma and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. Being a Sagittarius personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “flexes to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer match I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the exact same energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
