The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement within the community. From the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the title's release, to trainers forming strong views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

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

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost selected for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when angered. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a strong partner; if you cross them, be ready to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed love of snacks. Several past official descriptions mention their fondness for tasty tree sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of every party, providing an endless fountain of chatter to those who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to envision Super Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their tales. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its capacity to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most emotional sign of the astrological wheel, a intense symbol known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the official info, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to create a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is clearly Super Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Leo brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked face like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a doll, it became sentient through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpio adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “silly little entertainer” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even mentions how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer match I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That exudes the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's dual Ghost/Fire typing matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating aura is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
