The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the gradual reveal of newcomers ahead of the game's launch, to players developing strong opinions on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

With many of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Remain on the friendly side of either and benefit from a strong partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Super Form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the creature and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several previous official descriptions note their craving for sweet tree sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless stream of chatter to anyone who wish to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its capacity to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a passionate sign known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's too much for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to pick Pyroar for the king of the zodiac? Besides the fact that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the identical energy a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly critical is strongly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually surprised face like a Virgo when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic being, who uses the feelers on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Always empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them worry more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a performance. As a Archer myself, the amount of times I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful little entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “flexes 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 fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Goat, who often always believe they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
