This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the gradual unveiling of fresh additions ahead of the game's launch, to trainers developing strong views on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

Given many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique designs that highlight their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being fun, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why Aries much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Stay on the friendly side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Similar to a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its regular and Mega form, has aided many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed passion for treats. Several previous official descriptions mention their fondness for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very simple to envision Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which seems very similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Super Manectric

The Crab is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign known for often getting absorbed in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely control,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a thundercloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you think I was planning to pick Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Besides the fact that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Leo offers to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The sign famous for being charmingly critical is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a always shocked expression like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a plan.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how people are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would probably benefit from Super Audino's skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to stress even more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad origin: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through pure hatred and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the number of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small jester” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee disasters in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often always believe they’re right. The thing is, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
