This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm within the community. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the game's release, to players forming firm opinions on the full roster of new Megas, there's a lot for enthusiasts to anticipate.

Given many of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that highlight their personalities, one idea came to mind: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes Aries much more akin to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Much like a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its standard and Mega form, has assisted many players in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will stand up for their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed love of treats. Many past Pokédex entries mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is true Taurus energy.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot convince me this creature is not the life of every party, providing an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to hear. Just like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a passionate symbol known for often getting absorbed in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a thundercloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be much too obvious, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Leo brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign famous for being charmingly critical is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a plan.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and trying to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would likely just make them stress even more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are always putting on a performance. Being a Archer personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some variation of a “silly small jester” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to foresee disasters in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently believe they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
