The return of Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A has ignited widespread enthusiasm across the fandom. From the gradual reveal of newcomers ahead of the title's release, to players developing firm opinions on the entire lineup of new Megas, there's a lot for enthusiasts to anticipate.
With numerous of the Super Forms boasting distinctive designs that highlight their traits, one idea came to mind: What's the best way to link this with astrology? The following is based on a mix of vibes, sign stereotypes, and personal experience.
Honestly, Houndour's evolution was nearly chosen for this fire sign, as both are the Super Form and zodiac symbol that evoke the most fear. But, a Mega Houndoom appears as always angry, which doesn't match the Ram's energy, renowned for being fun, light-hearted, and impulsive. This makes Aries much more similar to Mega Camerupt, which only erupts when provoked. Remain on the good side of either and benefit from a strong ally; should you offend them, be ready to get burned.
Similar to a devoted Bull, the steadfast Heracross, both in its regular and Mega 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 firm belief – will defend their side unwaveringly. What about Mega Heracross that recalls most of my Bull-sign companions, though, is its unashamed passion for snacks. Several previous Pokédex entries note their fondness for tasty tree sap and how it employs its appendage to collect it everything, which is pure Taurus energy.
Observe this total queen. You cannot convince me this creature is not the soul of any gathering, providing an endless fountain of gossip to anyone who wants to hear. Just like an captivating, sociable Twins, it's incredibly simple to imagine Super Medicham mesmerizing an whole Wild Zone with their tales. This Pokémon's Pokédex entry also mentions its capacity to foresee an enemy’s future actions, which seems quite like a people-smart Twins.
The Crab is widely considered as the most sensitive member of the zodiac, a passionate sign known for frequently getting wrapped up in their feelings. Per the Pokédex, Mega Evolution fills the creature with a “huge quantity of electricity, but it's excessive for Manectric to fully control,” which seems a lot like a typical Crab crash-out. It is also known for its ability to make a thundercloud over its own head – and if there’s a single trait a Cancer is going to do, it’s rain on their good time.
Oh, did you think I was going to pick the lion Pokémon for the lion of the stars? Besides the fact that it would be much too obvious, The Lion is obviously Super Starmie, the star whose legs just went viral for being extremely glamorous (or terrifying, depending on your taste). Fans couldn’t look away from the violet sea star, and that’s precisely the same energy a Lion offers to the table. This Pokémon is also said to be transmitting radio waves from its red core out into the cosmos, and it’s typical of a Leo to be putting on a performance, albeit for extraterrestrials.
The ever-prepared and perpetually-anxious Virgo is perfectly encapsulated in Super Victreebel, the Super Form with perpetual acid reflux. The sign famous for being endearingly judgmental is clearly reflected across this Pokémon’s entire lineage, from a perpetually shocked face like a Maiden when you inform them you don’t have a retirement plan, to its inverted visage that’s just like the symbol a Maiden posts to the chatroom when everyone says they want to “go with the flow” rather than creating a strategy.
Observe this gentle, sensitive being, who employs the feelers on its auditory organs to detect how others are emotionally by their pulse. Consistently compassionate – sometimes to a detriment – and trying to keep 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 stress even more about others.
This Ghost-type is a Pokémon with a unexpectedly sad origin: Discarded as a doll, it became consciousness through pure resentment and swore revenge on its previous caretaker. According to the Pokédex, Mega Evolution, “increases its vindictiveness.” That sounds precisely like several discussions I’ve had with my scary Scorpio friends. A Scorpion adores cosmic justice and comeuppance, making them the perfect match with Super Banette.
Each Mega Hawlucha and Sagittarians are always staging a performance. Being a Archer personally, the amount of occasions I’ve referred to myself some version of a “silly little jester” is innumerable. The showiest and most attention-seeking Super Form, its Pokédex entry even notes how it “poses to display its power.” I would do the very same thing if I had some kind of Super Form, making Super Hawlucha the most fitting Archer match I can think of.
Did you know that a Mega Absol has the ability to predict calamities ahead of time? That gives the exact same energy as a Capricorn, who often consistently think they’re correct. The thing is, similar to a visionary Super Absol, they often are. It’s also the absolute initial Super Form that players meet in Legends: Z-A – just like a Capricorn to join the beginning of the Super Form craze.
Aloof air sign Water Bearer is possibly the non-fire sign that is closest to a flame symbol – its counterpart is Leo, and there are countless jokes about the Archer and Aquarius being unpredictable partners in crime. Super Chandelure's double Spirit/Flame typing fits seamlessly with this, and the Mega’s general intimidating presence is also very Water Bearer. If you weren’t already persuaded, the Mega’s Pokédex entry says it “absorbs negative energy and transforms it into strength.” If that fails to exactly {encaps
