This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm within the community. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions ahead of the game's launch, to players developing firm views on the full roster of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that emphasize their personalities, one thought naturally: How can connect this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was nearly selected for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a powerful ally; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed love of treats. Several past official descriptions note their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wants to hear. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an entire Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense sign known for often becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge amount of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. It is also known 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.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Aside from the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion brings to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected throughout this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked face like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a plan.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would probably appreciate Super Audino's abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just make them stress even more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through pure resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “silly little entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “flexes 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 match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That exudes the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating presence is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
