The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm within the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers before the game's release, to trainers forming firm views on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.

With many of the Super Forms boasting unique appearances that emphasize their personalities, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why Aries far more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Stay on the friendly side of both and benefit from a powerful ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, whether in its regular and Mega form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Several past official descriptions mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute royalty. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's official description also states its ability to foresee an opponent's next moves, which sounds quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign known for often getting absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which seems a lot like a typical Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

Leo – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to pick Pyroar for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Lion offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised face like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden sends to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who employs the feelers on its ears to tell how people are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry even more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through sheer resentment and vowed revenge on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. Being a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “silly small jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict calamities in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to get in on the beginning of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire category matches seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
