The comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the fandom. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the game's launch, to players developing strong views on the full lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to look forward to.

Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique appearances that emphasize their traits, one thought 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 individual observations.

Aries – Super Camerupt

Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly selected for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Remain on the good side of both and enjoy a strong ally; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.

Taurus – Mega Heracross

Similar to a devoted Taurus, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its standard and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Several past official descriptions note their craving for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.

Gemini – Mega Medicham

Look at this absolute royalty. It's impossible to tell me this creature is not the soul of every party, providing an constant stream of gossip to those who wish to listen. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Twins, it's very simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its ability to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems very like a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Mega Manectric

Cancer is commonly considered as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a intense sign known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “tremendous quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.

Leo – Mega Starmie

Oh, 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 Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or terrifying, depending on your preference). Fans were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s precisely the identical vibe a Leo offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being endearingly critical is clearly reflected throughout this creature's whole lineage, from a always surprised face like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted visage that’s similar to the emoji a Maiden sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a plan.

Libra – Mega Audino

Look at this sweet, sensitive being, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry more about everyone else.

The Scorpion – Super Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it became consciousness through pure resentment and vowed revenge on its former owner. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “increases its spitefulness.” That sounds exactly like many conversations I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion adores karma and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Mega Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always putting on a performance. As a Sagittarius myself, the number of times I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “silly little entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even notes how it “flexes to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

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

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you hadn't yet persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
