The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one reveal of fresh additions ahead of the game's release, to trainers forming firm opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

Given many of the Super Forms boasting distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to link this with astrology? The following is based on a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost chosen for Aries, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the Pokémon and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Several previous official descriptions note their fondness for sweet tree sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the soul of every party, offering an constant stream of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also mentions its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol famous for often becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Aside from the reality that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Lion offers to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly critical is strongly reflected across this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised face like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic being, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Scales who would probably appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them worry more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer hatred and swore retribution on its former owner. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest 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 a Mega evolved 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 predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-fire placement that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
