The Perfect Pocket Monster Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Astrological Sign
The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement within the fandom. Starting with the one-by-one unveiling of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing firm opinions on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.
With numerous of the Super Forms showcasing unique designs that emphasize their personalities, one thought naturally: How can link this with zodiac signs? This list is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.
Aries – Mega Camerupt
Honestly, Houndoom was nearly chosen for Aries, as both are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. This makes the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which only spews lava when provoked. Stay on the friendly side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, be ready to get burned.
Taurus – Super Heracross
Similar to a loyal Bull, the reliable Heracross, both in its standard and Mega form, has aided many trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, each the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – be it their trainer or a strong opinion – will stand up for their position unwaveringly. What about Super Heracross that reminds me most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unashamed love of treats. Several previous official descriptions note their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its horn to collect it all, which is pure 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 endless stream of gossip to those who wants to hear. Much like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's very simple to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also states its capacity to foresee an opponent's next moves, which seems very similar to a people-smart Gemini.
The Crab – Super Manectric
The Crab is widely considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense sign known for frequently getting absorbed in their emotions. According to the official info, Mega Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “tremendous quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its ability to make a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their own parade.
Leo – Super Starmie
Oh, did you assume I was planning to select Pyroar for the lion of the zodiac? Besides the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the star whose gams just became an internet sensation for being too glamorous (or terrifying, depending on your preference). Fans were captivated from the purple starfish, and that’s precisely the same vibe a Leo offers to the table. Starmie is also rumored to be broadcasting signals from its red core out into space, and it’s just like a Leo to be putting on a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is ideally represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with constant digestive issues. The sign famous for being charmingly critical is clearly mirrored throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you tell them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the emoji a Virgo posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” instead of making a plan.
The Scales – Mega Audino
Observe this gentle, sensitive creature, who uses the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Always compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and striving to keep the harmony, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, let’s be honest, it would probably just make them worry more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
Banette is a creature with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it became sentient through pure resentment and swore revenge on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like several discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves karma and retribution, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Mega Hawlucha
Each Mega Hawlucha and Archers are constantly staging a show. Being a Archer myself, the amount of occasions I’ve called myself some variation of a “playful small entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its description even mentions how it “poses to show off its strength.” I would do the exact same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can imagine.
The Goat – Mega Absol
Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to predict calamities in advance? That gives the exact same vibe as a Capricorn, who often always think they’re right. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Mega trend.
Aquarius – Super Chandelure
Detached air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-fire placement that is closest to a fire sign – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless memes about Sagittarius and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s dual Ghost/Fire category fits seamlessly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating presence is also very Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs negative energy and converts it into power.” If that fails to perfectly {encaps
