The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm within the community. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the title's release, to trainers developing strong opinions on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

Given many of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as always furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why Aries much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Stay on the friendly side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total royalty. You cannot tell me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant stream of gossip to those who wants to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's next moves, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign famous for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also recognized for its capability to create a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to pick Pyroar for the king of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Lion brings to the table. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly judgmental is strongly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked face like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a plan.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this gentle, sensitive being, who uses the sensors on its ears to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Libras who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became consciousness through sheer hatred and swore retribution on its former owner. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion adores karma and retribution, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to predict disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is possibly the non-flame placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating aura is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
