The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the gradual reveal of newcomers before the game's launch, to players forming firm opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique designs that highlight their personalities, one thought came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? This list is based on a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Stay on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the creature and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position to the end. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several past official descriptions note their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of every party, offering an endless fountain of gossip to those who wish to hear. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a passionate symbol famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion brings to the scene. Starmie is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected throughout this Pokémon’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 face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and trying to maintain the peace, there are numerous Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just cause them to stress more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a doll, it became sentient through pure hatred and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a performance. Being a Sagittarius myself, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “silly small jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even notes how it “flexes to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee disasters in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Capricorn, who often consistently believe they’re right. The thing is, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire category matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating aura is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and transforms it into power.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
