This comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm across the community. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions ahead of the title's launch, to players forming strong views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

With numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that highlight their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was almost selected for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom appears as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why Aries much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of both and enjoy a strong partner; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.

The Bull – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Several previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect 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, providing an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly easy to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an opponent's future actions, which sounds very similar to a people-smart Gemini.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for often becoming wrapped up in their emotions. According to the official info, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Oh, did you think I was planning to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be far too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Players were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Leo brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a always surprised expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this gentle, sensitive creature, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to detect how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. Though, to be frank, it would likely just make them worry more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad origin: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through pure resentment and swore revenge on its former owner. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpion friends. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal match with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to predict calamities in advance? That gives the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached element Aquarius is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like 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 Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
