10 More Rick & Morty Fan Theories That Change Everything

5. Mr. Nimbus Can Travel Across Dimensions

Rick has always jumped around from dimension to dimension, and has called several different universes home for different periods of time. From his original universe to Morty’s original universe, their new universe after Cronenberging the last one, and so forth. The list could go on and on.

With him hopping around so much, it would make sense that he wouldn’t have many or even any friends or even acquaintances. Birdperson was slightly different, as they travelled the multiverse together, but realistically he has moved about too much to keep any real relationships intact.

This works in theory, but Mr. Nimbus claims to be Rick’s oldest friend. This doesn’t really make sense since he only came to his new universe in recent years, so how could the master of the ocean have known Rick for so long?

Since Mr. Nimbus has such a strong connection with Rick, what if he has followed him on his journey across the multiverse? Where Rick has gone, Mr. Nimbus has followed using his own travelling technique, allowing them the most amount of time possible together and to foster their love/hate relationship.
