This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement within the community. From the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the game's launch, to trainers forming firm opinions on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: How can link this with astrology? The following is based on a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was nearly chosen for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes Aries far more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are still battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is true Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an endless stream of chatter to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds very similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also recognized for its capability to create a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Leo offers to the scene. 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 show, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

Libra – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic being, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and trying to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to worry more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its former owner. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little jester” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to predict disasters in advance? That gives the exact same energy as a Goat, who often consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form 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

Aloof element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame sign that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's dual Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
