Your Ideal Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form Based on Your Zodiac Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense excitement within the fandom. From the gradual reveal of newcomers before the game's launch, to trainers forming strong opinions on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for enthusiasts to look forward to.
Given numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique appearances that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.
The Ram – Super Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. But, a Super Houndoom comes across as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Stay on the good side of either and benefit from a strong partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.
The Bull – Mega Heracross
Much like a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross species, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will defend their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, though, is its unashamed love of snacks. Many previous Pokédex entries note their craving for tasty sap and how it uses its horn to hoard it all, which is true Bull-sign vibe.
Gemini – Mega Medicham
Observe this absolute queen. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the life of any gathering, providing an endless fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds quite similar to a people-smart Twins.
The Crab – Mega Manectric
Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a passionate symbol known for often becoming wrapped up in their emotions. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Crab emotional outburst. It is also known for its capability to make a thundercloud over its very self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s spoil their own parade.
The Lion – Super Starmie
Well, did you assume I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Besides the reality that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your preference). Players were captivated from the violet sea star, and that’s exactly the same energy a Leo brings to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a show, even if for aliens.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly judgmental is strongly reflected across this creature's whole evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Virgo sends to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a plan.
Libra – Super Audino
Observe this sweet, empathetic being, who employs the sensors on its ears to detect how people are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep the harmony, there are many Libras who would likely benefit from Super Audino's abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would likely just cause them to worry even more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through pure resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its spitefulness.” That seems precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal pair with Super Banette.
The Archer – Super Hawlucha
Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the number of occasions I’ve called myself some version of a “silly little entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can think of.
Capricorn – Super Absol
Were you aware that a Super Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Goat, who tends to consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.
Aquarius – Mega Chandelure
Aloof air sign Aquarius is possibly the non-fire placement that is closest to a flame symbol – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable accomplices. Super 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 persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
