The Ideal Pocket Monster Tales: Z-A Mega Evolution According to the Zodiac Sign
The return of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread excitement within the community. From the one-by-one reveal of fresh additions ahead of the title's launch, to trainers developing firm opinions on the entire roster of Mega Evolutions, there's plenty for enthusiasts to anticipate.
Given numerous of the Mega Evolutions boasting unique designs that highlight their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to link this with astrology? This list is inspired by a mix of intuition, common zodiac traits, and personal experience.
The Ram – Super Camerupt
Honestly, Houndour's evolution was almost selected for Aries, as they are the Mega Pokémon and zodiac symbol that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom comes across as always angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being playful, cheerful, and spontaneous. That's why Aries far more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when provoked. Remain on the friendly side of both and enjoy a powerful partner; if you cross them, prepare to get burned.
The Bull – Super Heracross
Similar to a loyal Taurus, the reliable Heracross species, both in its regular and Mega form, has assisted numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. While dependable, both the creature and a Taurus are still Fighting types, and – be it their trainer or a firm belief – will stand up for their position to the end. What about Mega Heracross that reminds me most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Many past Pokédex entries mention their craving for tasty tree sap and how it uses its appendage to collect it everything, which is true Bull-sign vibe.
Gemini – Mega Medicham
Look at this total queen. You cannot tell me this creature is not the life of any gathering, providing an endless fountain of gossip to those who wants to hear. Much like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's very easy to imagine Mega Medicham mesmerizing an entire Wild Zone with their stories. This Pokémon's official description also mentions its capacity to predict an opponent's next moves, which seems very like a people-smart Gemini.
The Crab – Mega Manectric
The Crab is commonly regarded as the most emotional sign of the zodiac, a intense symbol known for frequently becoming absorbed in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Super Evolution fills the creature with a “huge amount of electricity, but it's excessive for this Pokémon to completely manage,” which seems a lot like a classic Cancer crash-out. This Pokémon is also known for its capability to create a storm cloud over its own self – and if there’s one thing a Crab is going to do, it’s spoil their good time.
Leo – Mega Starmie
Well, did you think I was planning to select Pyroar for the king of the stars? Aside from the reality that it would be much too on the nose, The Lion is clearly Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or horrifying, based 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 scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be broadcasting radio waves from its center out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Lion to be staging a performance, even if for extraterrestrials.
Virgo – Mega Victreebel
The always-ready and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual digestive issues. The zodiac symbol known for being endearingly judgmental is strongly mirrored across this Pokémon’s entire evolutionary chain, from a perpetually surprised expression like a Maiden when you inform them you lack a retirement plan, to its upside-down face that’s just like the symbol a Maiden sends to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” instead of creating a plan.
The Scales – Super Audino
Look at this gentle, sensitive being, who employs the sensors on its auditory organs to tell how people are emotionally by their heartbeat. Always empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and striving to keep the harmony, there are numerous Scales who would likely appreciate Super Audino's skills. However, let’s be honest, it would likely just make them stress more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
Banette is a creature with a surprisingly sad origin: Discarded as a toy, it became consciousness through sheer resentment and vowed revenge on its previous caretaker. Per the official info, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That seems exactly like many discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpion friends. A Scorpio loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha
Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are constantly putting on a show. As a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “playful little entertainer” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “poses to display its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had a Super Form, making Mega Hawlucha the most apt Archer match I can imagine.
The Goat – Mega Absol
Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee calamities ahead of time? That gives the identical vibe as a Capricorn, who often always think they’re right. The thing is, much like a visionary Super Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that players encounter in Legends: Z-A – typical of a Capricorn to get in on the beginning of the Mega trend.
The Water Bearer – Super Chandelure
Detached element Water Bearer is arguably the non-fire placement that is most like a flame symbol – its sister sign is Leo, and there are countless memes about the Archer and Water Bearer being chaotic partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Ghost/Fire typing matches perfectly with this, and the Mega’s general daunting presence is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already convinced, the Super Form's Pokédex entry says it “draws in hatred and converts it into power.” If that doesn’t perfectly {encaps
