'''Horoscope''' is the popular zodiac of the [[Unova]] region that is talked about on the TV Show "Personality Assessment and Horoscope", seen in {{game|Black and White|s}} on [[television]]s. 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. For instance, Pisces can represent February 19 to March 20, while {{p|Alomomola}} represents the entire month of March. Also, the Pokémon in the zodiac are related to the star signs of the zodiac, such as {{p|Sawsbuck}} and {{p|Bouffalant}}, which are similar to Capricorn and Taurus, respectively.

==The Zodiac==
Each of the Pokémon in the zodiac corresponds to a star sign of the real-world {{wp|zodiac}}; however, each Pokémon represents a specific month, unlike the real world {{wp|zodiac}}, in which one star sign lasts for roughly a month's time but does not correspond to one specific month in the {{wp|Gregorian calendar}}. Each Pokémon of the zodiac represents the month that encompasses most of their real counterpart's duration. For example, {{wp|Pisces (astrology)|Pisces}} represents February 19 to March 20, while {{p|Alomomola}} represents the entire month of March.
Some of the Pokémon in the Zodiac are noticeably alike to the signs of the real-world {{wp|zodiac}}; however, not all of them are, and the ones that are, are not necessarily in the correct places.
