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

The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the community. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the title's launch, to trainers forming strong views on the full roster of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.

With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive appearances that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: How can connect this with zodiac signs? The following is inspired by a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why Aries far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of either and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the creature and a Taurus are still battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed passion for treats. Many past Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it all, which is true Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, offering an constant stream of chatter to those who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's next moves, which sounds very similar to a people-smart Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly considered as the most emotional sign of the zodiac, a passionate symbol famous for frequently getting absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

Leo – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the star whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a always surprised expression like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a plan.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would probably benefit from Super Audino's skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them worry more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained consciousness through pure resentment and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. As a Archer myself, the number of times I’ve called myself some version 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 Archer counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities ahead of time? That gives the exact same energy as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
