Your Perfect Pokémon Legends: Z-A Mega Evolution According to the Zodiac Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the community. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the title's release, to trainers forming strong opinions on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.
With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their personalities, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of vibes, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.
Aries – Mega Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom comes across as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram much more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, prepare to face the consequences.
The Bull – Super Heracross
Similar to a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the Pokémon and a Bull are still 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 reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of snacks. Several previous official descriptions note their craving for sweet tree sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.
Gemini – Super Medicham
Look at this total royalty. You cannot convince me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, offering an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to listen. Just like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.
Cancer – Super Manectric
The Crab is commonly considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which seems a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to create a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.
The Lion – Super Starmie
Well, did you assume I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too obvious, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely fabulous (or terrifying, based on your taste). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Leo offers to the scene. 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 performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.
Virgo – Mega Victreebel
The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Virgo when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Virgo posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a strategy.
Libra – Mega Audino
Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a fault – and trying to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry even more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That seems exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpion loves karma and retribution, making them the perfect match with Mega Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Both Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. Being a Sagittarius myself, the number of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can think of.
Capricorn – Super Absol
Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict disasters in advance? That exudes the identical energy as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re right. The thing is, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.
Aquarius – Mega Chandelure
Detached air sign Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
