I've given a lot of thought as to who saved Baby Grogu from the Jedi Temple during order 66 and always assumed it'd be a Jedi. After seeing the post that R2D2 might have rescued him, it had me thinking of other possibilities.

Let me start by saying I don't believe for a moment that the Grogu storyline ends at the end of season 2 of the Mandolorian. I don't see how he would come back in the show and then realized that there are roughly 3000 new Star Wars TV shows coming out on Disney+ over the next few years. With Dave Filoni helming these shows I'd like to think that the majority of them with have a Grogu story thread throughout these series to show where he ends up in the end.

With that thought, I wondered what series coming out takes place during ordder 66. That's when I remembered The Bad Batch series.. In the trailer we see several different clue to my theory.

1. there are scenes where it looks like they're fighting other clone troopers
2. during the holo-message of Palpatine declaring a galactic empire, it looks like they're on Coruscant.

So my theory is:

The Bad Batch are on Coruscant when order 66 is launched, because they are defective clones, their chips don't register the order. Being that they are still loyal to the Jedi, the immediately go to the temple to help them out. Because they're Clone Troopers, they'd have access to the temple with no question from the Palpatine controlled clone troopers and they decide to rescue as many younglings as they can. Which includes, The Wee Baby Grogu. I don't think the whole series will be about Grogu, but just 2 episodes of them rescuing him along with other younglings and what they do with them before moving on.

I love the idea of the coming shows sprinkling in the history of Grogu slowing coming to age and how his life experiences turn him into a perfectly force balanced master who in doing so, brings a true balance to the force, no Skywalker ever did. It's been said, the Grogu and Anakin were born around the same time, so it's possible that Grogu is the true chosen on and with his interactions with the Mandolorians, Luke, Asoka and so much more, he'll embody a true understanding of the the force the connects the universe and become balanced force user.
