This return of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement across the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one reveal of fresh additions before the title's launch, to players forming strong views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for enthusiasts to anticipate.

With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.

The Ram – Super Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Stay on the friendly side of either and benefit from a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.

The Bull – Super Heracross

Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, whether in its regular and Mega form, has aided numerous players in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed passion for treats. Many past Pokédex entries note their fondness for tasty sap and how it uses its appendage to hoard it all, which is pure Taurus energy.

Gemini – Super Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to tell me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an endless stream of chatter to anyone who wants to hear. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is commonly considered as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for often getting absorbed in their feelings. Per the official info, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to fully manage,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be far too obvious, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the diva whose gams just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Players were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting radio waves from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a show, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with constant digestive issues. The sign known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a always shocked 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 sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a strategy.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, empathetic being, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Mega Audino’s skills. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them stress more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

Banette is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Abandoned as a toy, it gained sentient through sheer resentment and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds precisely like many conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio friends. A Scorpion loves karma and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a show. Being a Sagittarius myself, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its description even mentions how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius match I can imagine.

Capricorn – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to predict disasters ahead of time? That exudes the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently believe they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Mega Evolution that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-flame sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire category matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also very Aquarius. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
