This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement within the community. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the game's launch, to players developing strong views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

Given numerous of the Super Forms boasting unique appearances that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? The following is inspired by a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost chosen for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Remain on the friendly side of either and benefit from a powerful ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the creature and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will stand up for their position to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of snacks. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for sweet sap and how it uses its horn to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, providing an endless stream of chatter to those who wants to hear. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Twins, it's very easy to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their tales. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its capacity to predict an enemy’s next moves, which sounds very like a people-smart Twins.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense symbol known for often becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. It is also recognized for its capability to make a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was planning to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the fact that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how people are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would likely just make them stress even more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through pure resentment and swore retribution on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Archers are constantly putting on a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently believe they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very first Super Form that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's description says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
