This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the community. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to trainers forming strong views on the full lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one idea naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? The following is inspired by a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for Aries, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes Aries much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its regular and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Several previous official descriptions note their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Look at this total royalty. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an endless fountain of gossip to those who wants to listen. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems very similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most emotional sign of the zodiac, a passionate symbol known for often becoming wrapped up in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to select Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected throughout this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised face like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, sensitive being, who uses the feelers on its ears to detect how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would probably benefit from Super Audino's abilities. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them stress more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly tragic origin: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through pure resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a show. Being a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical energy as a Capricorn, who often always think they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting aura is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
