Angry Birds Star Wars II[]
In Angry Birds Star Wars II, a droid control ship was attacked by Jedi knights, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, the hordes of Battle Droids aboard the vessel forced them to escape to Naboo, where they defeated some hordes of Battle Droids with the help of Yoda and freed Jar Jar Binks, Captain Panaka, and Padmé Amidala. However, the remaining hordes of Battle Droids forced them to escape from Naboo. Meanwhile, aware of this, Darth Sidious and Jango Fett sent some Battle Droids to attack the Birds' Naboo Royal Starship. The Pork Federation managed to damage the ship and leak their hyperdrive forcing the heroes to Tatooine to buy a new hyperdrive, leaving Sidious satisfied.
However, it soon turned out that the Birds had survived, much for Sidious' frustration. In response, he sent Darth Maul and Count Dooku to kill the heroes, which was in vain, as, with the help of the young podracer Anakin Skywalker, the Birds managed to buy a new hyperdrive and leave Tatooine. Knowing that they would be heading to Naboo, the Pork Federation members went back to the planet, where the heroes were fighting against the remaining hordes of Battle Droids. While Anakin managed to destroy the Pork Federation Spaceship and free Naboo, Maul managed to kill Qui-Gon Jinn during a lightsaber duel against him and Kenobi, but Obi-Wan managed to kill Maul, Before Qui-Gon died he said to Obi-Wan to train Anakin.
10 Years later, Darth Sidious plotted a plan to weaken the Bird Side, which would allow the him to conquer the entire galaxy with little to no opposition. On Coruscant, Sidious sent Zam Wesell and some Battle Droids to attack the Bird Rebels, while he and some Stormtroopers disguised themselves as birds to help the heroes defeat Wesell and gain their trust. After Zam was defeated, Kenobi was lured by Jango and Boba Fett to Kamino, where they managed to throw him at the waters of the planet. However, the pigs were unaware of the fact that Kenobi had actually survived this incident.
Some time later, on Geonosis, some members of the Pork Federation and their leader Nute Gunray including Count Dooku attacked the Birds, though members of the Jedi order and Clone Troopers arrived to help and they managed to defeat them, but Dooku and Gunray fled. After the victory over Geonosis the Clone Wars begun.
3 years later, aboard a Separatist Battleship, Anakin had a duel against Count Dooku and General Grievous. While Dooku was killed with no problem, Grievous used an escape pod to go to Mustafar. After this, Anakin learned about The Egg, a powerful object whose location remains a mystery to anyone but Yoda. With this, he started to doubt about the Bird Side. Aware of this, Darth Sidious lured Anakin into joining him, though this fact would remain unknown to anyone else.[2]
A while later, back on Coruscant, Darth Sidious and Anakin plotted to kill Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi and the members of the Pork Federation, though they were discovered by Kenobi himself, Padmé, and Mace Windu. Enraged, Windu tried to kill Skywalker, only for him to be killed instead. Now having reveled himself against the Bird Side, Anakin used a starfighter to go to Mustafar as a dumbfounded Kenobi and a heartbroken Padmé watched him. Afterward, Darth Sidious ordered the Clones to reveal themselves to the Jedi order, betraying all its members, and execute them. The few survivors, including Obi Wan and Padmé, escaped to Mustafar, while Yoda was forced to escape to Dagobah.[2] On Mustafar, Kenobi had a lightsaber duel against Anakin, who was thrown to the lava. After Kenobi and Padmé left, Sidious and some Shocktroopers retrieved Anakin's body and, through a surgery, gave him a life-saving armor. Deciding to get rid of his past self, Skywalker adapted the alias of Darth Vader. The Pork Federation was soon after dissolved and replaced with the Pig Empire.
