The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm within the fandom. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions ahead of the title's launch, to trainers developing strong views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? The following is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost chosen for Aries, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes Aries much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of either and benefit from a strong ally; if you cross them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the creature and a Taurus 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 passion for treats. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, offering an constant stream of chatter to those who wants to listen. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's official description also states its ability to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which sounds quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign known for often getting absorbed in their emotions. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to select Pyroar for the lion of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion brings to the scene. Starmie is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored across this creature's whole lineage, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Virgo when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who uses the feelers on its ears to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to keep the peace, there are many Scales who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to stress more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through pure hatred and vowed revenge on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a show. Being a Sagittarius personally, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful small jester” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Goat, who tends to always think they’re correct. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame category fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
