This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement within the fandom. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers before the title's launch, to players forming strong opinions on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when angered. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Several past Pokédex entries note their fondness for sweet sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this total queen. It's impossible to tell me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly easy to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to predict an enemy’s next moves, which sounds very like a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most emotional sign of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign famous for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge amount of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was planning to pick Pyroar for the king of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion offers to the table. Starmie is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a performance, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how people are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to worry even more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through pure resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpio adores karma and retribution, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a performance. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “playful little jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee disasters in advance? That exudes the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently believe they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame placement that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire typing matches seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
