This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement within the community. From the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the title's launch, to players developing firm views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Super Forms boasting unique appearances that highlight their traits, one thought naturally: How can link this with zodiac signs? The following is inspired by a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly selected for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a powerful ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed passion for treats. Several previous Pokédex entries note their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to collect it everything, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also states its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which sounds quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a passionate symbol known for frequently becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the official info, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. It is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its own head – 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 think I was planning to select Pyroar for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players were captivated from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole lineage, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Virgo posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress even more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad origin: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through sheer hatred and swore retribution on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “playful small entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to display its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer 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 exudes the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who often always think they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its sister sign is Leo, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting presence is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
