This comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm within the fandom. From the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing strong opinions on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

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

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always furious, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes Aries much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Remain on the good side of either and enjoy a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the creature and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed love of treats. Many previous official descriptions mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Look at this total royalty. You cannot convince me this creature is not the soul of every party, providing an endless fountain of gossip to those who wants to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to envision Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which seems very like a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the official info, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. It is also known for its capability to create a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you assume I was planning to pick Pyroar for the king of the zodiac? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Players were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Lion offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly critical is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a always shocked face like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them stress more about others.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Discarded as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed revenge on its former owner. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpion loves karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a show. Being a Archer myself, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful small entertainer” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the exact same energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame placement that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
