Horoscope is the popular Zodiac of the Unova region that is talked about on the TV Show "Personality Assessment and Horoscope". A certain Pokémon represents a certain month, unlike the real World Zodiac, where one Star Sign lasts for roughly a Month's time but not dead on a month. Also, the Pokémon in the Zodiac are related to the Star Signs of the Zodiac, for example Sawsbuck and Bouffalant, which are similar to Aries and Taurus, respectively.

The Zodiac

It should be noted that some of the Pokémon in the Zodiac are noticeably alike to the Signs of our Zodiac, however not necessarily in the correct places. It should also be noted that not all Pokémon are related to their Zodiac counterpart, instead being there to fill the gaps between similar Signs.

Purpose

Pokémon Zodiac is used in the TV Show "Personality Assessment and Horoscope" which explains the traits and actions of the different Pokémon Signs and their Horoscope for the current day. The player's Date of Birth affects the results that appear.

Trivia

  • Whimsicott and Braviary are the only Pokémon in the Pokémon Zodiac not to have counterparts in the Tropical Zodiac.
  • Of the Pokémon with counterparts, Sawsbuck is the only Sign not to have its month fall on the ending month of its counterpart in the Tropical Zodiac, as its month January is not the ending month of Aries, which ends in April.
  • Alomomola and Bouffalant are the only Pokémon involved in the Zodiac without an evolutionary line, and they each represent one of the months of the year beginning with the letter M.
