The comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement across the fandom. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the title's release, to players developing strong opinions on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Super Forms boasting unique appearances that highlight their traits, one thought came to mind: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost selected for Aries, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why Aries far more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a strong ally; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Much like a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are still battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Many past Pokédex entries note their craving for sweet sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which sounds quite similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most sensitive member of the zodiac, a intense sign famous for often getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly mirrored across this Pokémon’s whole lineage, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how people are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are many Libras who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry even more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Discarded as a doll, it became sentient through pure resentment and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves karma and retribution, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a show. As a Archer personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical vibe as a Goat, who often always think they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
