The comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm across the community. Starting with the gradual unveiling of newcomers ahead of the title's release, to trainers forming firm views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

With numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive appearances that emphasize their personalities, one idea came to mind: How can link this with astrology? The following is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when angered. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong ally; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Much like a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, whether in its standard and Super Form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the creature and a Taurus are also Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Many past official descriptions note their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Observe this absolute queen. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the soul of every party, offering an endless fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its ability to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which sounds quite similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Super Manectric

Cancer is widely considered as the most emotional member of the astrological wheel, a passionate sign known for frequently getting absorbed in their emotions. Per the official info, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. It is also known for its ability to create a thundercloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you assume I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your preference). Players couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Lion brings to the scene. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Mega Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The sign known for being charmingly critical is strongly reflected throughout this creature's entire lineage, from a always shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s similar to the symbol a Virgo posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its ears to detect how people are emotionally by their pulse. Always empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the peace, there are numerous Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them stress more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it gained sentient through pure resentment and vowed revenge on its former owner. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores karma and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a performance. As a Archer myself, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little jester” is countless. The showiest and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes 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.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Goat, who tends to always believe they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Detached air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
