@digital-human said: Haha. "Baby Yoda" is just a temporary nick name people are using because it's what best describes him seeing as how this species has never been given an official name. George Lucas wanted it to be that way. And this takes place 5 years after Return of the Jedi (Episode 6). Yoda is dead, and we see him as a force ghost in The Last Jedi.
Haha, I was just very confused since yesterday, now watching the episode I did realize it was a nickname :) And the baby is so powerful, I now wonder if his species is more inclined to be powerful in the force
Ohhh, I didn’t know the official timeline of the show, I thought it would be closer to the end of the Return of the Jedi, but it makes sense considering the power of the Empire, that even five years later, it still has power in some places
