Your Ideal Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Astrological Sign

The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm within the community. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers before the title's launch, to players forming strong opinions on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique appearances that highlight their personalities, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to link this with astrology? The following is inspired by a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndoom was almost selected for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Remain on the good side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Mega form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of snacks. Many previous official descriptions note their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the life of every party, providing an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's incredibly simple to envision Mega Medicham captivating an entire open area with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its ability to foresee an opponent's next moves, which sounds very similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a intense symbol known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge amount of energy, but it's too much for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Leo brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected throughout this creature's whole lineage, from a perpetually surprised face like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s similar to the symbol a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep the peace, there are many Libras who would likely benefit from Super Audino's skills. Though, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to worry more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became consciousness through pure hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.

The Archer – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are always putting on a performance. As a Archer myself, the number of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful little jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often always believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super 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 Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating aura is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
