This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the fandom. From the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the title's release, to players forming firm views on the full roster of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their personalities, one idea naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries note their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the life of every party, providing an endless stream of chatter to those who wish to listen. Just like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's very simple to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also known for its ability to create a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo offers to the table. Starmie is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this creature's whole lineage, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo sends to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of making a plan.

Libra – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would probably appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry even more about others.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became consciousness through pure resentment and vowed revenge on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion adores karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are always putting on a show. As a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little jester” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to foresee disasters in advance? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
