The reason Rick created the Finite Curve was to trap Prime Rick in a bubble, so that way C-137 doesn't have to literally search the entire Multiverse for him.

[@rzovlogs]

But still he has to look into infinite universes, although some infinites are bigger than others. Think of it like this, The Central Finite curve is like enclosing the numbers 1 to 2, and the rest of the real numbers are the multiverse. Of course, there are still an infinite amount of numbers outside 2 and 1, but between 1 and 2 there’s also an infinite amount of numbers, like 1.1,1.001,1.0001 and so on.

rick prime invented protal travel and porbably the central finite curve, he explained it to c-137 in his backstory “once I give you this technology you become the smartest thing in every conceivable universe, a god” - rick prime

[@tzisorey]

Im still convinced that the reason C137 Rick contributed to the creation of the central finite curve, is not because it keeps the Ricks on top, but because it quarantines the Ricks from the remainder of the multiverse. Hes so depressed and self destructive because hes the only Rick who knows hes imprisoned, and its a prison of his own creation.

[@eeeeee8762]

​@cain7925 my best guess is that he realized that if there were truly a fully infinite amount of universes, then Rick couldn't possibly be the smartest in all of them, and couldn't possibly be the only one to have interdimensional portal travel, but he didn't know about the curve until he scanned C-137's brain. (Though he probably scanned his, "evil", Rick's brain before finding out C-137 knew more)

[@jackiechan715]

​@@eeeeee8762We also got a hint about the Central Finite Curve very early on, when Rick and Morty fled the bug monster universe. Rick said something along the lines of "We have to be careful, there aren't too many more worlds with these parameters". But that's impossible in a truly *infinite* multiverse, there would be an unlimited amount unless something was limiting the multiverse.

Only if it’s possible to reset him whilst he’s already outside of the curve

[@Cherryz219]

I imagine probably not, since no one can exit the finite curve, even with portal guns, its logical to assume no one outside of the curve can enter it either, which means there is some sort of dimensional wall there, which would then also prevent evil morty from coming back unless he or someone else punched a new hole into the curves boundary, otherwise we would have peooooobably seen him again cuz i imagine he would be pretty mad...or maybe he is hiding?

So you may already know this but this is pretty cool. Rick is based on Doc Brown from Back to the future, but he's also Reed Richards from the F4.
Reed Richards created a pocket dimension called the Council of Reeds in order to solve all the problems of the universe with all the other dimensional versions of himself and Kang is Reed Richards descendant, so he also did that to ape his (great great etc..) grandfather's idea. Except that from a publication standpoint, the council of Kangs predates the council of Reeds,

The council of Ricks is based on the council of Reeds which is based on the council of Kang's which (in universe) is based on the council of Reeds

Central finite curve is the Rick and Morty version of source wall, it's to draw a line between what materials you can and can't use. A guideline for the writers.

[@FoolOverride]

Partially correct. Once morty was outside the curve, travel to dimensions outside of the curve became possible only if you had Morty's portal gun. This is shown when after the crack in the curve was fixed, morty was able to portal into the curve and then back out at the end of that episode

[@AbderrahmanFodili]

I think Rick created it to separate universes where Rick is the most dominant person from the universe's where Rick chooses not to be that all because a rick that killed our Rick's family for turning down his offer.

I love the idea that the Evil Morty coukd have gone into any of the dimensions outside of the finine curve but somehow ended up in a blender dimension

[@Mr_Horr1-bill]

He's going to find the finite curve where he's the apex of those universes 😂

[@lawanbrown16]

Well it just means that in Morty’s universe Rick can die for real or be outsmarted by something smarter.

[@jamesproductions9437]

technically, the easter egg with fords items falling through one of the random portals shows that gravity falls is in the central finite curve

[@carlosmendozapiano]

You must not forget that the green area is also infinite, so theres an infinite amount of universes where rick is the smartest being but there's also a bigger infinite amount of universes where he's not

[@brandr7964]

With that intellect and power rick is a god

[@koku194]

Rick and Rick prime existed and the universe went: ok you are now supreme

[@gajaan316]

Im pretty sure the central finite curve is completely destroyed, as we saw on Evil Morty's hologram when he checks after escaping. So now EVERY conceivable universe is now open to our Rick and Morty. The dinosaurs just patched the unstable rift across dimensions and the space between them. Rick and still go to any universe now with the portal gun with the central finite curve gone

[@XainArchives]

Don't forget, he was immediately killed off too.

[@connormcgehee9349]

As a fun fact there's probably infinite central finite curves cause if Rick can everyone can

[@auxz2jz158]

I believe you got it almost correct cuz we have seen Rick's that are completely stupid. The finite curve what would be the realities where the Rick's exist at all. All of the realities where he doesn't exist or left out

[@mysteriousvenus1410]

I think a line in the middle of the screen wouldve shown it better, since there are an infinite amount of universes where rick is the smartest and an infinite amount where he isnt

[@AiRsTrIkExXzZ]

The reason why ricks like doofus rick exists is because his universe is in between the purple and green lines

[@rpsnider85]

When you look at it the 3 most OP characters in the series are our (the shows main) Rick, then Rick Prime, and Evil Morty. Evil Morty seems to be at the same level as the main show Rick. And Rick Prime mentioned how the only 2 Rick's in existence to actually invent portal travel were himself and the shows main Rick, meaning they are clearly the two most intelligent and powerful of all the Rick's in existence. Our main Rick has shown himself to be far superior to literally every Rick in existence, and eventually even killed Rick Prime...with Evil Morty providing some major help but he wouldn't have done so unless our main Rick was actually worth helping to Evil Morty which Morty mentions when he acknowledges that this Rick is "a little different". Evil Morty doesn't seem to be any smarter than our Rick but he does reign in errant emotions and doesn't get distracted like our Rick which means he simply achieves what he sets out to do without any of the extraneous nonsense and does it much quicker and more direct than Rick does. I think if they really fought to the death that they'd be at a stale mate, or eventually just decide its stupid to fight each other.
But even though our Rick is THE Rick at the top, he's influenced by our Morty and when Morty truly wants/needs something Rick does whatever he can to make sure it's done, which makes main Morty also crazy OP by virtue of having the most OP Rick looking out for him.

I mean the existence of even one if those curves means that there are an infinite number of other curves outside of that one. Leading to an absolute collage of vendiagrams that interlap with different variables.
