Your Ideal Pokémon Tales: Z-A Super Form According to the Zodiac Sign
This comeback of Super Forms in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited immense enthusiasm within the fandom. Starting with the gradual reveal of fresh additions before the title's launch, to players forming strong views on the entire lineup of Mega Evolutions, there's a lot for enthusiasts to look forward to.
Given numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that emphasize their traits, one thought naturally: What's the best way to connect this with zodiac signs? The following is based on a blend of intuition, common zodiac traits, and individual observations.
Aries – Super Camerupt
Honestly, Houndoom was nearly chosen for Aries, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the greatest apprehension. However, a Super Houndoom appears as constantly angry, which doesn't match the Aries vibe, renowned for being playful, light-hearted, and impulsive. That's why Aries much more akin to Super Camerupt, which solely erupts when angered. Remain on the good side of both and enjoy a powerful ally; should you offend them, be ready to face the consequences.
Taurus – Mega Heracross
Much like a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross species, both in its regular and Super Form, has aided numerous trainers in Legends: Z-A. Though dependable, both the Pokémon and a Bull are still Fighting types, and – whether it's their trainer or a firm belief – will stand up for their position to the end. What about Super Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unabashed love of treats. Many past official descriptions mention their fondness for sweet sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it all, which is true Taurus energy.
The Twins – Super Medicham
Look at this absolute queen. It's impossible to convince me this Pokémon is not the soul of every party, offering an constant fountain of chatter to anyone who wants to listen. Just like an enrapturing, sociable Gemini, it's incredibly simple to imagine Mega Medicham captivating an whole Wild Zone with their stories. Medicham’s Pokédex entry also states its capacity to predict an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite similar to a people-smart Gemini.
Cancer – Mega Manectric
Cancer is commonly considered as the most emotional member of the zodiac, a intense sign famous for often becoming absorbed in their emotions. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution charges the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's too much for this Pokémon to completely control,” which sounds a lot like a classic Cancer emotional outburst. It is also recognized for its ability to make a thundercloud over its own self – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their own parade.
The Lion – Super Starmie
Well, did you think I was going to select Pyroar for the king of the stars? Aside from the fact that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is obviously Mega Starmie, the diva whose legs just went viral for being too glamorous (or horrifying, based on your preference). Players were captivated from the purple starfish, and that’s exactly the identical energy a Leo offers to the scene. This Pokémon is also rumored to be transmitting signals from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s just like a Lion to be staging a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.
The Maiden – Super Victreebel
The ever-prepared and constantly-worried Virgo is perfectly represented in Mega Victreebel, the Mega with perpetual acid reflux. The zodiac symbol famous for being endearingly critical is strongly reflected throughout this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually surprised face like a Virgo when you inform them you don’t have a 401(k), to its upside-down visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the group chat when everyone says they want to “be spontaneous” rather than creating a strategy.
The Scales – Mega Audino
Observe this gentle, empathetic creature, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to tell how people are feeling by their pulse. Consistently empathetic – occasionally to a fault – and trying to keep the peace, there are numerous Scales who would likely benefit from Mega Audino’s skills. Though, to be frank, it would probably just cause them to stress even more about everyone else.
The Scorpion – Super Banette
This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a surprisingly sad backstory: Discarded as a doll, it gained sentient through pure hatred and swore retribution on its previous caretaker. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “enhances its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like many discussions I’ve had with my intense Scorpion acquaintances. A Scorpion loves cosmic justice and retribution, making them the ideal match with Super Banette.
Sagittarius – Super Hawlucha
Each Super Hawlucha and Archers are always staging a show. Being a Archer myself, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly little jester” is countless. The showiest and most obnoxious Mega Evolution, its Pokédex entry even mentions how it “flexes to show off its strength.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Sagittarius match I can imagine.
The Goat – Super Absol
Were you aware that a Mega Absol has the power to foresee calamities in advance? That exudes the identical vibe as a Goat, who often always think they’re right. The thing is, much like a prophetic Mega Absol, they frequently are. It’s also the very first Super Form that trainers encounter in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.
Aquarius – Super Chandelure
Aloof air sign Aquarius is arguably the non-flame sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Water Bearer being unpredictable partners in crime. Mega Chandelure’s double Spirit/Flame typing matches perfectly with this, and the Super Form's overall intimidating aura is also extremely Aquarius. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Mega’s description says it “absorbs hatred and transforms it into power.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
