The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement within the community. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the title's release, to players forming firm views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting distinctive appearances that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? The following is based on a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its standard and Super Form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will stand up for their position to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Many past Pokédex entries mention their fondness for tasty tree sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. You cannot convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, providing an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also states its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds very like a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a passionate symbol famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also known for its ability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was planning to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the feelers on its ears to tell how people are feeling by their heartbeat. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to keep the peace, there are numerous Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress even more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a doll, it became sentient through pure hatred and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical energy as a Capricorn, who often always think they’re right. Interestingly, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof air sign Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting aura is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
