This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement within the fandom. Starting with the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the game's launch, to players forming strong views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

With many of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? 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 Aries, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why the Ram far more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Remain on the friendly side of either and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its regular and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to collect it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute queen. You cannot convince me this creature is not the life of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign famous for frequently getting absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the star whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the identical energy a Lion brings to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant acid reflux. The sign known for being charmingly critical is strongly mirrored throughout this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a always shocked expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Virgo posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this gentle, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its ears to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep the peace, there are numerous Libras who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to worry more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its former owner. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a performance. Being a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to predict calamities in advance? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to always believe they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a prophetic Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating aura is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
