The Ideal Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Zodiac Sign
This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement within the fandom. From the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the game's launch, to trainers forming firm views on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for enthusiasts to look forward to.
Given many of the Super Forms showcasing distinctive designs that emphasize their personalities, one idea naturally: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.
Aries – Mega Camerupt
Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always furious, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, known for being fun, light-hearted, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.
Taurus – Mega Heracross
Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Bull are still battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.
The Twins – Super Medicham
Look at this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant stream of chatter to those who wish to hear. Just like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to predict an enemy’s next moves, which sounds very like a people-smart Twins.
Cancer – Super Manectric
The Crab is widely regarded as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol famous for often getting wrapped up in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Crab crash-out. It is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.
Leo – Super Starmie
Well, did you think I was going to select Pyroar for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too obvious, Leo is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, based on your preference). Fans couldn’t look away from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the identical energy a Leo brings to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be putting on a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The always-ready and constantly-worried Maiden is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually shocked 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 Virgo sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than making a plan.
The Scales – Super Audino
Look at this sweet, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and trying to maintain the harmony, there are many Scales who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just cause them to worry more about everyone else.
Scorpio – Mega Banette
Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it became sentient through sheer hatred and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Each Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a show. Being a Archer myself, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “playful little entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “flexes to display its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can imagine.
Capricorn – Super Absol
Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical vibe as a Goat, who often always believe they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.
The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure
Detached element Aquarius is possibly the non-fire placement that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being unpredictable accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already convinced, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
