The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm within the community. From the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions before the title's release, to trainers developing strong views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

Given many of the Super Forms boasting distinctive appearances that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: How can connect this with zodiac signs? The following is inspired by a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram far more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a powerful ally; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several past official descriptions mention their craving for sweet tree sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it everything, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, providing an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to pick Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion brings to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s whole lineage, from a perpetually 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 emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the feelers on its ears to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and trying to keep the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them stress more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad origin: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a show. Being a Sagittarius myself, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That gives the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re right. The thing is, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is possibly the non-fire placement that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
