Your Ideal Pocket Monster Tales: Z-A Super Form Based on Your Astrological Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the community. Starting with the gradual reveal of newcomers ahead of the game's release, to trainers developing firm views on the full roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.
Given many of the Mega Evolutions showcasing unique designs that highlight their personalities, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a mix of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.
Aries – Super Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndour's evolution was nearly chosen for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and astrological sign that evoke the most fear. But, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes Aries far more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only erupts when angered. Remain on the friendly side of both and benefit from a strong partner; should you offend them, prepare to face the consequences.
Taurus – Super Heracross
Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable 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 Fighting types, and – be it their companion or a firm belief – will defend their side to the end. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Several previous official descriptions note their craving for sweet tree sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it all, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.
The Twins – Super Medicham
Look at this total queen. It's impossible to convince me this creature is not the life of any gathering, offering an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Gemini, it's incredibly easy to envision Mega Medicham captivating an entire Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also states its ability to predict an opponent's next moves, which sounds quite like a people-smart Gemini.
Cancer – Mega Manectric
Cancer is widely regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for often becoming absorbed in their feelings. According to the official info, Mega Evolution charges the Pokémon with a “tremendous amount of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely control,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. This Pokémon is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its very head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.
The Lion – Mega Starmie
Oh, did you think I was planning to pick Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, Leo is clearly Mega Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being extremely fabulous (or horrifying, based on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple sea star, and that’s exactly the identical vibe a Leo offers to the table. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Leo to be staging a show, albeit for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The sign known for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected throughout this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Virgo when you tell them you lack a retirement plan, to its inverted face that’s similar to the symbol a Maiden posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a strategy.
The Scales – Mega Audino
Observe this gentle, empathetic being, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how others are feeling by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to maintain the harmony, there are numerous Libras who would probably appreciate Super Audino's abilities. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them worry even more about everyone else.
Scorpio – Mega Banette
This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad origin: Abandoned as a doll, it gained consciousness through pure resentment and vowed retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Super Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like several conversations I’ve had with my intense Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.
The Archer – Mega Hawlucha
Both Super Hawlucha and Sagittarians are constantly staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some variation of a “playful little jester” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.
The Goat – Super Absol
Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That exudes the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re correct. Interestingly, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute first Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the beginning of the Super Form craze.
The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure
Aloof element Aquarius is possibly the non-fire sign that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are numerous memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall daunting aura is also very Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “draws in negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
