This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the community. From the one-by-one reveal of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing firm opinions on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

With many of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique appearances that emphasize their personalities, one thought naturally: How can connect this with astrology? The following is inspired by a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why Aries much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, be ready to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross species, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed love of treats. Many past Pokédex entries mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to envision Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to predict an opponent's next moves, which sounds very like a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol famous for often getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo brings to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a performance, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly critical is strongly mirrored throughout this creature's entire lineage, from a always shocked face like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.

Libra – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how people are feeling by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. Being a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful little jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re correct. The thing is, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Aquarius is possibly the non-flame sign that is most like a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Super Chandelure's dual Ghost/Fire category fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
