This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense enthusiasm across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one reveal of newcomers ahead of the title's launch, to players developing strong opinions on the full roster of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

With many of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that emphasize their traits, one idea came to mind: How can link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why Aries much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a strong partner; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their position unwaveringly. The thing about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Many past Pokédex entries note their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of chatter to those who wants to hear. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Twins, it's very simple to envision Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its capacity to predict an enemy’s future actions, which sounds quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming wrapped up in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known 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.

Leo – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was planning to pick Pyroar for the lion of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Players were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Leo offers to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly judgmental is strongly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s just like the symbol a Virgo sends to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would probably benefit from Super Audino's abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them stress more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some variation of a “silly small jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That exudes the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re correct. The thing is, much like a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
