The comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement within the fandom. From the one-by-one unveiling of newcomers ahead of the game's launch, to players forming firm views on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

Given numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that highlight their personalities, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly selected for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why Aries much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and benefit from a strong partner; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Much like a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its regular and Super Form, has assisted numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will stand up for their side to the end. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed passion for treats. Many previous official descriptions mention their craving for sweet tree sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the life of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to envision Mega Medicham captivating an whole open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which seems very like a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the official info, Mega 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 typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its capability to create a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion brings to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a show, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being charmingly judgmental is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s just like the emoji a Maiden posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

The Scales – Mega Audino

Observe this gentle, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how people are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to worry even more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through sheer hatred and vowed revenge on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion adores karma and comeuppance, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a show. As a Sagittarius myself, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “playful small entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can think of.

Capricorn – Super Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That exudes the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the ground floor 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 sister sign is Leo, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall daunting presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
