The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm across the community. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions before the title's launch, to players forming strong opinions on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive designs that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why the Ram much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong partner; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed love of snacks. Many previous official descriptions note their craving for tasty sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, offering an endless stream of gossip to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's very simple to envision Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also mentions its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense sign known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to fully control,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. It is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Super Starmie

Well, did you assume I was planning to pick Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion brings to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol known for being charmingly judgmental is clearly mirrored throughout this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised expression like a Virgo when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the symbol a Virgo sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Observe this gentle, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its ears to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are many Scales who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly tragic backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it became sentient through pure hatred and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly putting on a show. Being a Archer myself, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities in advance? That exudes the exact same energy as a Goat, who often always believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
