The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the community. Starting with the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the title's launch, to trainers forming firm opinions on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive designs that emphasize their personalities, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the Pokémon and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will defend their position unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Many previous official descriptions mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its capacity to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which sounds quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the zodiac, a passionate symbol known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be much too obvious, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely 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 just like a Leo to be putting on a show, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly mirrored throughout this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. Though, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to worry more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a toy, it became consciousness through pure hatred and swore retribution on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a performance. As a Archer myself, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly little entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Archer match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Goat, who often always think they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame typing fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
