This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the title's release, to players developing strong views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

With many of the Super Forms boasting unique appearances that emphasize their traits, one idea naturally: How can link this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of either and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its regular and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed love of snacks. Several past official descriptions note their fondness for sweet tree sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also states its capacity to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign known for often getting absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its capability to make a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to select Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion brings to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored across this creature's whole lineage, from a perpetually surprised 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 everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how people are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are many Libras who would probably appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to stress even more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through pure resentment and vowed retribution on its former owner. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly putting on a show. Being a Sagittarius personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly small jester” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical energy as a Goat, who often consistently think they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in hatred and transforms it into power.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
