Your Perfect Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form Based on Your Astrological Sign

The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm across the fandom. From the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing strong views on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for enthusiasts to anticipate.

With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that emphasize their traits, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Much like a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Many previous Pokédex entries note their fondness for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to those who wish to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems very like a people-smart Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a passionate sign famous for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully control,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose gams just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Lion offers to the scene. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, empathetic being, who employs the feelers on its ears to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly sad origin: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through pure hatred and swore retribution on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha

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

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical energy as a Capricorn, who tends to always believe they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-flame placement that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
