This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm within the community. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions ahead of the title's release, to trainers forming strong views on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given many of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that emphasize their personalities, one idea naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes Aries much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when angered. Stay on the friendly side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its regular and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the creature and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of snacks. Many past Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of every party, offering an constant fountain of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their stories. Medicham’s official description also mentions its ability to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which sounds quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense sign known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Leo offers to the table. Starmie 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 show, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is strongly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s just like the emoji a Virgo sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic being, who uses the sensors on its ears to tell how people are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to stress even more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Archer myself, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “silly little entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to predict disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often always believe they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
