This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the community. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to trainers developing firm views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that emphasize their personalities, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? The following is based on a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Stay on the friendly side of either and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross species, whether in its standard and Super Form, has aided many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of every party, offering an constant stream of chatter to those who wish to hear. Just like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an entire Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also states its capacity to foresee an opponent's next moves, which seems very like a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a passionate sign famous for often getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to make a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to pick Pyroar for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Leo brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a performance, albeit for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly critical is clearly mirrored throughout this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s similar to the symbol a Virgo sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic being, who employs the feelers on its ears to tell how people are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to keep the peace, there are many Libras who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to worry more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became consciousness through sheer hatred and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee calamities ahead of time? That exudes the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is possibly the non-fire sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
