French McDonald’s Teases “Big Mac” Pokemon Card, U.S. Happy Meal Promotion Coming Next Month?

[Water Pokémon Master]

In August we confirmed the McDonald’s Pokemon TCG promotion will run in France from December 4th to January 21st.
A few days ago the French Twitter account for McDonald’s jokingly tweeted out a fake “Big Mac” card from Pokemon TCG Pocket. This may be foreshadowing the promotion, especially since they commissioned real artwork.

However, there are still no signs of a U.S. Happy Meal promotion. Historically, France has always started their McDonald’s promotion a month or two after the United States. Perhaps this time it’ll be a simultaneous release?
Currently McDonald’s is holding a Mario Kart promotion in both the U.S. and France. We’ve confirmed it runs until November 25th in the U.S. and until December 3rd in France.
If the U.S. is also getting a Pokemon promotion...

Well, if a whipped dessert can be a living Pokemon, I don't see why this couldn't. Definitely a Pokemon.

I'm sorry to say, but this is not "real artwork", this is an AI generation of a burger in a forest.

I don't think there's no proof but yeah it definitely seems that way. Especially since the artist just says "McDonalds France" instead of crediting a real artist. Either way, that sucks!!

I think the same, which is why here's proof!

are you disrespecting the new burgermon!?

 

[Nintenfreak]

Big Mac should be an item card that poisons your active Pokemon.

Yeah, looks like it. Take a look at the branch on the lower right, it looks like its digging into the ground.

 

[BUEFFES]

I really hope that there will be cards with unique artwork in this promotion and not just holo reprints with stamps.

A Chicken McNuggets eating Pokémon would be so cool!

 

[MarlinRimes]

I doubt it’s AI but I wouldn’t be suprised. If it is, I’d assume it would be more on the Mcdonald side then the Pokémon side

Last I checked Big Mac was a deep red stallion, white freckles with orange mane and tail, wears a yolk and always says Eeyup nor Eenope

 

[Exo]

[Mudkipster07]

This has got to be the craziest thing i've seen in Pokemon all year...
I want this to be an irl promo too, this is such a solid promo XD

 

[PokeJAM]

I think the U.S. will be getting a special Happy Meal promotion soon.

 

[Mimikeon]
