The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the gradual unveiling of newcomers ahead of the game's release, to players forming strong opinions on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, one thought naturally: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of either and enjoy a strong partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a passionate symbol known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. It is also known for its capability to create a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion offers to the table. Starmie is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a show, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always shocked expression like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s just like the symbol a Virgo sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” instead of making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how people are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them stress more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a show. Being a Sagittarius personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee disasters in advance? That gives the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is most like a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
