This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement within the community. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the title's launch, to trainers developing strong views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given many of the Super Forms boasting unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and benefit from a powerful ally; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – be it their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed love of snacks. Many past official descriptions mention their craving for sweet tree sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an endless stream of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly simple to envision Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which sounds very similar to a people-smart Gemini.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most emotional sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for often getting absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge amount of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its capability to create a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Leo brings to the table. Starmie is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a show, even if for aliens.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a always shocked face like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Super Audino's abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer hatred and swore revenge on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Mega Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. As a Sagittarius personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution 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 possibly the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Spirit/Flame category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting aura is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
