The comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers ahead of the game's release, to players developing strong opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

Aries – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why Aries much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a strong ally; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the creature and a Bull are also Fighting types, and – be it their trainer or a firm belief – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed love of snacks. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it everything, which is true Taurus energy.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot tell me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole open area with their stories. Medicham’s official description also states its ability to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which seems very similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly regarded as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a intense sign known for often getting absorbed in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to pick 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 gams just became an internet sensation for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored throughout this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a plan.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive being, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to worry even more about others.

Scorpio – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a show. As a Sagittarius personally, the number of times I’ve called myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Goat, who often always think they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a prophetic 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 Mega trend.

Aquarius – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Water Bearer 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 unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
