This comeback of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has sparked widespread excitement across the community. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the game's release, to players developing strong views on the entire roster of new Megas, there's plenty for fans to anticipate.

With numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to connect this with astrology? This list is based on a blend of vibes, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.

Aries – Mega Camerupt

To be truthful, Houndoom was nearly selected for Aries, as they are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. However, a Mega Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which isn't typical of the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why the Ram much more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts 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 regular and Super Form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While trustworthy, both the creature and a Taurus are also battle-oriented, and – whether it's their trainer or a strong opinion – will defend their position unwaveringly. The thing about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Taurus friends, however, is its unabashed love of treats. Many previous official descriptions mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it employs its appendage to hoard it everything, which is pure Bull-sign vibe.

The Twins – Mega Medicham

Observe this total royalty. You cannot tell me this Pokémon is not the soul of any gathering, providing an constant stream of gossip to those who wish to listen. Much like an enrapturing, gregarious Twins, it's very simple to imagine Super Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its ability to foresee an opponent's future actions, which sounds quite similar to a people-smart Twins.

Cancer – Super Manectric

Cancer is commonly regarded as the most emotional sign of the zodiac, a passionate symbol famous for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the Pokémon with a “huge quantity of energy, but it's excessive for Manectric to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. It is also recognized for its capability to create a storm cloud over its own head – and if there’s one thing a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.

The Lion – Mega Starmie

Oh, did you think I was going to select Pyroar for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is clearly Super Starmie, the diva whose legs just became an internet sensation for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, depending on your taste). Players couldn’t look away from the purple sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion brings to the table. Starmie is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its center out into space, and it’s typical of a Lion to be putting on a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.

Virgo – Mega Victreebel

The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with constant acid reflux. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly critical is strongly mirrored throughout this creature's entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised 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 sends to the group chat when all says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of making a plan.

The Scales – Super Audino

Observe this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the sensors on its ears to detect how others are emotionally by their heartbeat. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a fault – and trying to maintain the peace, there are many Libras who would probably benefit from Super Audino's abilities. However, to be frank, it would probably just make them worry even more about everyone else.

Scorpio – Mega Banette

This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly tragic origin: Discarded as a doll, it became sentient through sheer resentment and swore revenge on its former owner. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio acquaintances. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.

Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha

Both Super Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a performance. As a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly small jester” is innumerable. The most flamboyant and most attention-seeking Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “flexes to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Mega evolved form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius counterpart I can think of.

The Goat – Mega Absol

Were you aware that a Super Absol has the power to foresee disasters ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who tends to consistently think they’re right. Interestingly, similar to a visionary Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that trainers meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Goat to get in on the beginning of the Mega trend.

The Water Bearer – Mega Chandelure

Detached air sign Water Bearer is possibly the non-flame sign that is closest to a fire sign – its sister sign is Leo, and there are numerous jokes about Sagittarius and Aquarius being chaotic partners in crime. Super Chandelure's dual Spirit/Flame category matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's general daunting presence is also extremely Water Bearer. If you hadn't yet convinced, the Super Form's description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into strength.” If that doesn’t exactly {encaps
