We construct static and stationary versions of a black bounce geometry using as inspiration a line element that arises in loop quantum gravity (LQG) scenarios. Analyzing the line element from the framework of general relativity, we trace its origin to nonlinear electrodynamics with electric and magnetic charges and check the energy conditions (null energy condition, weak energy condition, and strong energy condition). By extending the geometry using the Simpson-Visser procedure, we construct a black hole–wormhole bounce structure, influenced by LQG parameters. We analyze the horizon structure to constrain parameters for black holes and wormholes, and examine curvature and new sources, including a phantom-type scalar field, to ensure spacetime regularity and adherence to energy conditions. Thermodynamic properties are also studied, revealing the existence of remnants and phase transitions. Additionally, we derive a rotating black bounce solution, verifying its regularity, and putting forward that the spherical bouncing surface turns into an ellipsoid with no ring singularity. Finally, we find that increasing the LQG parameter leads to smaller ergospheres and reduced shadows, with potential implications for observational astrophysics and quantum gravitational signatures.
