The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement within the community. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the game's launch, to trainers forming strong views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given many of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Stay on the friendly side of either and benefit from a strong partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several past official descriptions note their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its horn to collect it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total queen. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to those who wants to hear. Just like an enrapturing, gregarious Twins, it's very easy to imagine Super Medicham captivating an entire Wild Zone with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds quite like a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for often getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for Manectric to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Fans were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion brings to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a performance, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this gentle, sensitive creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how people are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just cause them to stress more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through sheer resentment and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Archer counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That gives the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very first Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to get in on the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Aloof air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-flame sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
