Every Rick From Rick & Morty, Ranked By Sheer Rickishness
You may find yourself feeling like a bit of a Jerry as you muddle your way through the complexities of the Rick and Morty multiverse. A short explanation of the world would be that there are actually an infinite number of universes and timelines, in which infinite variations of Rick and Morty exist and go on an infinite number of adventures.
The Rick that the show typically follows is Rick C-137. The misanthropic genius is a total jerk on the outside, but occasionally reveals a deep inner core of goodness through his actions regarding his family. He is pretty much the epitome of Rickishness. Although we can't be certain that we've seen every Rick from all the alternate dimensions, writers have certainly introduced quite a few.
Even if we haven't seen every Rick in Rick and Morty, we've definitely met a range of Ricks. After all, for every version of Morty, there has to be a Rick, right? There are those Ricks on the Council of Ricks, Rick D. Sanchez III (owner of Simple Rick's cookies), Pickle Rick (C-137 turned pickle), and even Black Rick (racist name, by the way). And that's only the beginning. If you've seen every episode with every Rick, make sure to watch more shows like Rick and Morty. Check out this list of Ricks from Rick and Morty ranked by Rickishness, and vote up the most Rickish Ricks.
- 1
Rick C-137
The most Rickish of all the Ricks, he's perfectly evil with just enough heart to make him mildly likeable.
- 2
Pickle Rick
Although maybe not an entirely new version of Rick (C-137 turns himself into a pickle, so he's still technically C-137), Pickle Rick is pretty blood-thirsty and full of rage.
- 3
Toxic Rick
Toxic Rick is all of the personality quirks that make C-137 the most Rickish, including his abusively weird love for his Morty.
- 4
Evil Rick
Evil Rick takes his Rickishness to an extreme, and into something somehow more sinister. Just two steps above Rick on the evil scale, Evil Rick is lacking even the little bit of empathy that C-137 begrudgingly acknowledges.
- 5
Tiny Rick
Although Tiny Rick is technically Rick C-137 (or at least his consciousness), he's surprisingly un-Rickish. Although he's intelligent and musically inclined like your standard Rick, he's also a kind and likable hero who saves teenagers from vampires.
- 6
Rick D. Sanchez III
Willy Wonka meets evil genius at Simple Rick's cookie factory. Rick D. Sanchez III uses his knowledge of mind control to manipulate others and profit for himself, all under the guise of caring.
