The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm within the fandom. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers ahead of the game's launch, to players developing strong views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

Given many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a powerful ally; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed passion for treats. Many previous Pokédex entries note their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of every party, providing an endless stream of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly easy to envision Super Medicham captivating an entire Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an opponent's next moves, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive member of the zodiac, a passionate sign famous for often becoming wrapped up in their feelings. According to the official info, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also known for its ability to create a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to pick Pyroar for the lion of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be staging a show, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly critical is clearly mirrored across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and striving to keep the peace, there are numerous Libras who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would likely just make them worry even more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through pure resentment and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a show. As a Archer personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some variation of a “silly little jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even notes how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to predict disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently think they’re right. The thing is, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame placement that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating 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 power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
