The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the community. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers before the game's launch, to players developing firm views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

Given numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that emphasize their personalities, one thought naturally: How can connect this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom appears as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a strong ally; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its regular and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the Pokémon and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed love of treats. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, providing an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which sounds quite similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's too much for Manectric to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. It is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be much too obvious, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo brings to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being charmingly critical is strongly mirrored across this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a always shocked expression like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a plan.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress even more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it gained sentient through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the number of times I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even notes how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That gives the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who often consistently believe they’re right. Interestingly, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute initial Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
