The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the game's launch, to trainers forming strong views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

With many of the Super Forms boasting unique designs that emphasize their traits, one idea naturally: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? The following is inspired by a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why the Ram much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the creature and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will stand up for their position to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Several past official descriptions mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's next moves, which seems very similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for often getting wrapped up in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its ability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected throughout this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a plan.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to detect how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them stress even more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and swore revenge on its former owner. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio loves karma and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. Being a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities ahead of time? That gives the exact same energy as a Goat, who often consistently think they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure

Aloof element Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Ghost/Fire typing matches seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting aura is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
