The Ideal Pokémon Legends: Z-A Super Form According to the Astrological Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement across the community. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers ahead of the title's release, to trainers forming strong opinions on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.
With many of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: How can connect this with astrology? This list is based on a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.
The Ram – Mega Camerupt
Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.
Taurus – Mega Heracross
Much like a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed passion for treats. Several previous official descriptions mention their craving for sweet tree sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.
Gemini – Super Medicham
Look at this total royalty. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the life of every party, offering an endless fountain of chatter to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. Medicham’s official description also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's future actions, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.
The Crab – Mega Manectric
Cancer is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a passionate symbol famous for often becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the creature with a “huge amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. It is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.
The Lion – Super Starmie
Oh, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion offers to the scene. Starmie is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a show, even if for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Mega Victreebel
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this creature's whole lineage, from a always shocked face like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.
Libra – Mega Audino
Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who uses the feelers on its ears to tell how people are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to stress even more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through sheer hatred and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.
The Archer – Mega Hawlucha
Both Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a show. As a Sagittarius myself, the number of times I’ve called myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.
The Goat – Mega Absol
Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee calamities in advance? That exudes the exact same energy as a Goat, who often always think they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.
Aquarius – Mega Chandelure
Detached element Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's dual Ghost/Fire typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
