Big Mac ( my little pony)

**Big Macintosh**(aka **Big Mac**) is a red stallion from *My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic*. He is the grandson of Granny Smith and the older brother of Applejack and Apple Bloom. He is a very gentle and hardworking pony who usually only speaks by saying "Eeyup" or "Nope".

In Heart and Hooves Day, the Cutie Mark Crusaders used a love potion to make Big Mac fall in love with Cheerilee. After discovering that the potion had disastrous consequences, they found a way to to break the spell. Despite Big Mac and Cheerilee being no longer lovers, they are apparently still friends as they were seen together in Just For Sidekicks. He got a new love interest just after Cheerilee, in season 7 when he falls in love with Sugar Belle, from Our Town, after he and the Cutie Mark Crusaders visited the village in *Hard To Say Anything*. Sugar Belle got angry when him and a other pony tried to get her heart and almost destroyed her cake business, but eventually she and Big Macintosh seem to have feeling for each other, and they eventually get married.

## Character

### Personality

Big McIntosh and his sister discuss Applebuck Season.
Big McIntosh has a rather calm and easy-going demeanor in contrast with that of his sister, Applejack. He is a pony of few words and, like the rest of his family, he speaks with a Missouri Ozarks-like accent. He tends to answer questions or reaffirm things with a taciturn "eeeyup" or "nnope". He is hard to agitate, although he scolds the Cutie Mark Crusaders for publishing harmful gossip about Applejack and him in Ponyville Confidential, is quick to agree with Cheerilee's disciplining the scheming Crusaders in Hearts and Hooves Day, and becomes annoyed with Applejack's constant questions in Pinkie Apple Pie. He has a practical sort of wisdom; for example, he advises Applejack against single-handedly harvesting all the apples in Applebuck Season.
Big Mac has a close bond with his sisters and cherishes his relationships with them. In The Last Roundup, he tears up when he learns that Applejack has decided not to return to Ponyville. In Brotherhooves Social, he goes to great lengths to win Apple Bloom a blue ribbon at the Sisterhooves Social, and it is stated that the two were considerably close when they were younger. In the same episode, he is shown to harbor feelings of inferiority and neglect whenever Apple Bloom praises Applejack for her heroics, and becomes envious when Apple Bloom begins spending more time with her for this reason. In Crusaders of the Lost Mark, he sheds tears of joy and pride after Apple Bloom earns her cutie mark.

He is humorously involved in the "want it, need it" spell fiasco in Lesson Zero, becoming infatuated with and refusing to relinquish Twilight's enchanted raggedy Smarty Pants doll. Many other Ponyville citizens also fall prey to the spell and dog-pile Big Mac, but he throws them off in a cartoonish explosion. Once the spell is lifted from the doll, he still runs off with it. The episode Ponyville Confidential references his affection for the doll; one edition of the newspaper titled "Big McIntosh: What's he hiding?" features a photo of him playing with the doll by himself.
Though he typically speaks few words as mentioned above, Big Mac demonstrates an articulate vocabulary while in disguise in Brotherhooves Social, speaking far more eloquently than normal. He is also portrayed as very talkative and snarky as a teenage colt in Where the Apple Lies, though not a very good listener. By the end of the episode, he learns to "talk less and listen more".
