The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement across the community. Starting with the gradual unveiling of fresh additions ahead of the title's release, to players developing firm views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

Given many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as always angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only erupts when angered. Stay on the friendly side of either and enjoy a powerful ally; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Mega form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Many previous official descriptions mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Look at this total queen. You cannot convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless stream of chatter to those who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also states its capacity to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds very similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a intense symbol known for frequently getting absorbed in their feelings. According to the official info, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to make a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you think I was planning to select Pyroar for the king of the zodiac? Besides the fact that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is clearly Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion brings to the scene. Starmie is also said to be broadcasting signals from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a show, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this creature's entire lineage, from a always shocked expression like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Super Audino's abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them stress more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly sad origin: Discarded as a toy, it gained sentient through pure resentment and swore retribution on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a performance. Being a Archer myself, the amount of occasions 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 “poses to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters in advance? That exudes the identical vibe as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “draws in negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
