Your Perfect Pocket Monster Legends: Z-A Super Form Based on Your Zodiac Sign

The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the fandom. From the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the title's launch, to trainers developing strong opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, 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.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why Aries far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross species, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed passion for treats. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for sweet sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this total royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the life of every party, providing an constant fountain of chatter to those who wants to listen. Just like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also states its ability to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to create a thundercloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was planning to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Leo offers to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a show, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly mirrored across this creature's whole lineage, from a always shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Virgo sends to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this gentle, empathetic creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them worry more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a show. Being a Sagittarius personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to predict disasters ahead of time? That exudes the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Mega Evolution 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

Aloof air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
