The Ideal Pokémon Legends: Z-A Super Form According to the Zodiac Sign
The return of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the community. From the gradual reveal of newcomers ahead of the game's release, to trainers developing firm opinions on the entire roster of new Megas, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.
Given many of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: How can link this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.
The Ram – Super Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was nearly chosen for Aries, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more similar to Mega 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 get burned.
The Bull – Mega Heracross
Similar to a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross species, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for snacks. Several previous official descriptions note their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.
Gemini – Super Medicham
Look at this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, providing an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds quite like a socially-savvy Twins.
The Crab – Super Manectric
The Crab is commonly regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense sign known for often getting wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which seems a lot like a classic Crab emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.
The Lion – Mega Starmie
Well, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose gams just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.
Virgo – Mega Victreebel
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this creature's whole lineage, from a always shocked expression like a Virgo when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.
Libra – Mega Audino
Observe this gentle, sensitive being, who uses the sensors on its ears to tell how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to stress even more about everyone else.
Scorpio – Super Banette
This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it became consciousness through pure hatred and vowed retribution on its former owner. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a show. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its description even notes 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 Archer match I can imagine.
Capricorn – Super Absol
Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to predict calamities in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Capricorn, who often consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Mega trend.
The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure
Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire sign that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting presence is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
