The Perfect Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Zodiac Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm across the fandom. From the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to trainers forming firm opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for enthusiasts to look forward to.
With numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting distinctive appearances that highlight their personalities, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of intuition, sign stereotypes, and individual observations.
The Ram – Super Camerupt
Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Aries vibe, known for being playful, light-hearted, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Stay on the friendly side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.
The Bull – Super Heracross
Much like a loyal Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the creature and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will stand up for their side unwaveringly. The thing about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unabashed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries mention their fondness for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.
The Twins – Mega Medicham
Observe this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of every party, offering an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wish to hear. Much like an captivating, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly easy to envision Mega Medicham captivating an whole open area with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its capacity to foresee an enemy’s next moves, which sounds very similar to a socially-savvy Gemini.
Cancer – Super Manectric
Cancer is widely considered as the most sensitive sign of the astrological wheel, a intense sign famous for often getting wrapped up in their feelings. According to the official info, Mega 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 classic Cancer crash-out. It is also recognized for its ability to make a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.
The Lion – Mega Starmie
Well, did you think I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players were captivated from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Lion offers to the table. Starmie 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, even if for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Virgo when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s just like the emoji a Maiden sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a strategy.
Libra – Super Audino
Look at this sweet, sensitive creature, who uses the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are many Libras who would likely appreciate Super Audino's abilities. Though, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry more about others.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
Banette is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly tragic backstory: Discarded as a doll, it became sentient through sheer hatred and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly putting on a performance. Being a Archer myself, the number of times I’ve called myself some version of a “silly small entertainer” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to show off its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can imagine.
Capricorn – Mega Absol
Did you know that a Super Absol has the power to foresee calamities ahead of time? That exudes the exact same energy as a Goat, who often always believe they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the ground floor of the Mega trend.
Aquarius – Mega Chandelure
Aloof air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being chaotic accomplices. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame typing fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general intimidating presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into strength.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
