Your Ideal Pocket Monster Legends: Z-A Mega Evolution Based on Your Astrological Sign

This return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread enthusiasm within the fandom. Starting with the gradual unveiling of fresh additions before the title's launch, to players developing firm views on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.

With many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought came to mind: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? The following is based on a blend of intuition, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly selected for this fire sign, as they are the Super Form and astrological sign that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as always furious, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, known for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram far more akin to Mega Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Stay on the friendly side of both and enjoy a strong partner; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.

Taurus – Super Heracross

Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, whether in its regular and Mega form, has aided many players in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Bull are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, however, is its unabashed love of snacks. Several previous official descriptions note their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its horn to collect it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Super Medicham

Look at this total royalty. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, offering an constant stream of gossip to those who wish to listen. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to envision Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole open area with their tales. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which seems quite similar to a socially-savvy Twins.

The Crab – Mega Manectric

The Crab is widely regarded as the most sensitive member of the astrological wheel, a intense symbol known for frequently becoming wrapped up in their emotions. According to the official info, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also recognized for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s a single trait a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their own parade.

The Lion – Super Starmie

Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is clearly Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Players were captivated from the violet starfish, and that’s exactly the same vibe a Lion offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be staging a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

The Maiden – Super Victreebel

The always-ready and perpetually-anxious Maiden is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol known for being charmingly critical is clearly reflected across this Pokémon’s whole evolutionary chain, from a always shocked expression like a Maiden when you tell them you lack a 401(k), to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the chatroom when all says they want to “go with the flow” rather than making a strategy.

The Scales – Super Audino

Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would probably appreciate Mega Audino’s abilities. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just cause them to stress even more about others.

The Scorpion – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a creature with a surprisingly sad backstory: Abandoned as a toy, it gained consciousness through sheer hatred and swore revenge on its former owner. According to the Pokédex, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio 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 putting on a performance. Being a Sagittarius personally, the amount of times I’ve called myself some version of a “playful small jester” is countless. The most flamboyant 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 Archer counterpart I can imagine.

The Goat – Super Absol

Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to always think they’re correct. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.

Aquarius – Super Chandelure

Aloof air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like a fire sign – its counterpart is the Lion, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable accomplices. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category fits perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall intimidating presence is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s description says it “draws in hatred and converts it into strength.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
