10 Star Wars Power Moves We've Only Seen Once
5. Dropping The Electro-Proton Bomb - The Clone Wars
Another example of staggering power only ever seen during a single episode of animated Star Wars goodness, the Republic's decision to proceed with deploying their power move by the name of the Electro-proton bomb in their attempts to acquire the fuel found on Malastare during the Clone Wars had some rather disastrous consequences.
As the likes of Mace Windu and Anakin Skywalker watched their clone forces and the Dugs struggle to overcome the Separatist forces on Malastare, the decision was made to drop said powerful weapon on their enemy. The Electro-proton bomb wouldn't harm any living beings, only emitting an electromagnetic field that would take down droids in its vicinity.
And that's exactly what went down when it was finally dropped in 'The Zillo Beast' season two episode. But as that title suggests, it also just so happened to disturb the planet's ecosystem and wake up a destructive beast that the Dugs had believed was extinct: The Zillo Beast.
So, while the Electro-proton bomb certainly achieved what it was designed to do, the fact it also took out the Republic's electrical equipment and woke up a near-indestructible creature are probably just a few of the reasons this particular power move wasn't used again going forward.
