The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the community. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the title's launch, to trainers forming strong views on the full roster of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

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

The Ram – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why the Ram far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its standard and Mega form, has assisted many players in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several previous Pokédex entries note their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it all, which is true Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this total royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, providing an endless stream of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to predict an enemy’s next moves, which sounds quite like a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense sign known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the zodiac? Besides the fact that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Lion offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always shocked face like a Virgo when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Virgo sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this gentle, empathetic being, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Scales who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to stress more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a performance. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to display 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 counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often always believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s dual Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
