Your Perfect Pocket Monster Legends: Z-A Super Form Based on the Zodiac Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the community. From the gradual unveiling of newcomers before the title's launch, to trainers developing firm views on the full lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for enthusiasts to look forward to.
Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing distinctive appearances that emphasize their traits, one idea naturally: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? This list is inspired by a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.
Aries – Mega Camerupt
Honestly, Houndoom was almost chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and astrological sign that inspire the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom comes across as always furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. That's why the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to get burned.
The Bull – Mega Heracross
Similar to a loyal Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side to the end. The thing about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Many previous official descriptions note their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.
The Twins – Mega Medicham
Look at this absolute royalty. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, offering an constant stream of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an captivating, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s official description also mentions its ability to predict an opponent's next moves, which sounds quite like a people-smart Twins.
The Crab – Mega Manectric
Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the zodiac, a intense sign famous for frequently becoming absorbed in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also known for its ability to make a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.
The Lion – Super Starmie
Oh, did you assume I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.
Virgo – Mega Victreebel
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a 401(k), to its inverted face that’s similar to the emoji a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of making a strategy.
Libra – Super Audino
Observe this sweet, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to tell how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and trying to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would probably appreciate Super Audino's abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to worry more about others.
Scorpio – Mega Banette
Banette is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and vowed revenge on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect pair with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a show. Being a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its description even notes how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.
Capricorn – Mega Absol
Did you know that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Goat, who often consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Mega Evolution that players meet in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to get in on the ground floor of the Super Form craze.
Aquarius – Super Chandelure
Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is Leo, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s dual Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
