The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one reveal of newcomers ahead of the title's release, to players developing firm views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive designs that emphasize their personalities, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of vibes, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being fun, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes Aries far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, be ready to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Bull are still battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will defend 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 note their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot tell me this creature is not the soul of every party, offering an constant stream of chatter to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly simple 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 future actions, which sounds quite like a people-smart Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to pick 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 star whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is clearly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Virgo when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted visage that’s similar to the symbol a Virgo sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained sentient through pure hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a show. Being a Archer personally, the number of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities ahead of time? That exudes the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
