On the planet of Naboo, there existed a city known as Pontel, which served as a home for Human inhabitants of the Naboo species. During the Invasion of Naboo, specifically around 32 BBY at the time that Parrlay was subjugated, OOM-14, a commander within the Trade Federation's Droid Army, identified Naboo citizens in close proximity to Pontel. Subsequently, the battle droid launched an assault on the city, successfully seizing control of it for the Trade Federation.
Originally, Pontel was intended to be featured in the LucasArts video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, released in 2001. It was planned as part of the Trade Federation campaign's initial level, called "Beachhead." However, its inclusion was removed before the game's final release. Despite this, audio related to OOM-14's assault on Pontel remained present within the game's data files upon its launch.
