This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the fandom. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing firm views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

With many of the Mega Evolutions boasting distinctive appearances that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for this fire sign, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes Aries far more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Stay on the good side of either and benefit from a strong ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their side to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Many previous official descriptions note their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the soul of every party, providing an endless stream of gossip to those who wants to hear. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which sounds very like a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to make a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be much too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Lion offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, albeit for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole lineage, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a plan.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to maintain the harmony, there are many Scales who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to worry even more about others.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad origin: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are always putting on a show. As a Sagittarius myself, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small entertainer” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the exact same vibe as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often 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 beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
