The Ideal Pokémon Tales: Z-A Mega Evolution Based on Your Zodiac Sign
The comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked immense excitement across the community. From the one-by-one reveal of newcomers ahead of the game's release, to trainers developing firm views on the full lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for fans to anticipate.
Given many of the Super Forms boasting distinctive appearances that highlight their traits, one idea naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.
Aries – Mega Camerupt
To be truthful, Houndoom was almost selected for this fire sign, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that inspire the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly furious, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, known for being playful, cheerful, and impulsive. This makes the Ram far more similar to Super Camerupt, which solely spews lava when angered. Stay on the good side of both and benefit from a strong partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.
The Bull – Mega Heracross
Similar to a devoted Bull, the reliable Heracross species, whether in its standard and Mega form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the Pokémon and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their companion or a strong opinion – will defend their side unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed passion for treats. Several past Pokédex entries mention their fondness for tasty sap and how it employs its horn to hoard it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.
The Twins – Super Medicham
Look at this total royalty. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the life of every party, providing an constant stream of gossip to those who wish to listen. Much like an captivating, gregarious Twins, it's incredibly easy to envision Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire open area with their stories. Medicham’s official description also states its capacity to predict an opponent's future actions, which seems quite like a socially-savvy Gemini.
Cancer – Mega Manectric
Cancer is commonly regarded as the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol famous for often becoming wrapped up in their feelings. Per the official info, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a typical Cancer emotional outburst. It is also known for its ability to create a thundercloud over its own self – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is likely to do, it’s rain on their good time.
The Lion – Mega Starmie
Well, did you think I was going to select the lion Pokémon for the lion of the zodiac? Aside from the fact that it would be far too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too fabulous (or terrifying, depending on your preference). Players were captivated from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the same energy a Lion brings to the table. This Pokémon is also said to be broadcasting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a show, even if for aliens.
Virgo – Super Victreebel
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol famous for being charmingly judgmental is strongly reflected throughout this creature's whole lineage, from a perpetually shocked expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a 401(k), to its inverted visage that’s just like the emoji a Maiden sends to the group chat when all says they want to “go with the flow” instead of creating a strategy.
The Scales – Super Audino
Look at this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how people are feeling by their heartbeat. Always empathetic – occasionally to a detriment – and striving to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Mega Audino’s abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to worry even more about everyone else.
Scorpio – Super Banette
This Ghost-type is a creature with a unexpectedly tragic origin: Discarded as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed retribution on its former owner. According to the official info, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That seems precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpio adores karma and comeuppance, making them the perfect pair with Mega Banette.
Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha
Both Super Hawlucha and Archers are always putting on a performance. As a Archer personally, the number of times I’ve referred to myself some version of a “playful little entertainer” is countless. The most flamboyant and most obnoxious Super Form, its description even notes how it “poses to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer counterpart I can think of.
The Goat – Mega Absol
Did you know that a Super Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical energy as a Goat, who often consistently believe they’re correct. The thing is, much like a prophetic Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very initial Mega Evolution that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to get in on the ground floor of the Mega trend.
Aquarius – Super Chandelure
Aloof element Aquarius is arguably the non-fire sign that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is the Lion, and there are countless jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s overall intimidating presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and converts it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
