This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the game's release, to trainers developing strong opinions on the entire roster of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive appearances that highlight their personalities, one idea came to mind: How can link this with astrology? The following is inspired by a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why Aries much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of both and benefit from a strong partner; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the creature and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Many past Pokédex entries note their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this total royalty. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of chatter to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an entire Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s official description also states its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for frequently getting wrapped up in their emotions. According to the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for Manectric to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select Pyroar for the king of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly critical is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised face like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a plan.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, sensitive creature, who employs the feelers on its ears to detect how people are emotionally by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to stress more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. Being a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re right. Interestingly, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Aloof air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
