Your Perfect Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Zodiac Sign
This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense enthusiasm within the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one reveal of fresh additions ahead of the title's release, to players forming strong views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.
Given many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive designs that highlight their personalities, one idea naturally: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a blend of vibes, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.
The Ram – Mega Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndoom was almost chosen for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of either and benefit from a powerful ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.
The Bull – Mega Heracross
Similar to a devoted Taurus, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Super Form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed love of treats. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their fondness for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is pure Taurus energy.
Gemini – Mega Medicham
Observe this absolute royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, offering an constant stream of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Much like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly easy to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an entire Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to predict an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.
Cancer – Super Manectric
Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.
Leo – Super Starmie
Well, did you assume I was planning to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a performance, albeit for aliens.
Virgo – Super Victreebel
The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a always surprised face like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.
Libra – Super Audino
Look at this gentle, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, to be frank, it would likely just cause them to stress more about everyone else.
Scorpio – Mega Banette
This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained sentient through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio loves karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.
The Archer – Mega Hawlucha
Both Mega Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of times I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly little jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can think of.
The Goat – Mega Absol
Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Goat, who often always think they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Mega Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Super Form craze.
The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure
Aloof air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame category matches seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting aura is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
