Pomponius continued to serve as governor of the Creta et Cyrenaica until 50, at which time Claudius appointed him as governor and "legatus" of Germania Superior. In 50, Pomponius led the Roman legions to victory against the Chatti and freed the survivors of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest after forty years of slavery. For this, he was decreed the honour of a "ornamenta triumphalia". He served as governor of Germania Superior until 54. This was the final mention of Pomponius in the historical record, except by the Plinies.
