#(that reason being that he's actively chosen c137 as HIS rick but STILL)

I don't think C-137 is Morty's actual dimensional number.

Because he and Rick don't come from the same dimension, and it's never stated that C-137 is the dimensional designation that Morty (and Rick Prime by extension) comes from. Rick says that it's HIS dimensional designation, and since he created the Citadel it's not like they could've given him a new number, right? Rick would've told them to fuck off. So if C-137 is Rick's original dimensional number then that means that C-137 is the dimension where Beth and Diane died, meaning that Rick doesn't have an original Morty. C-137 Morty never got to exist.

But, when Morty refers to himself as "C-137", it's directly after he's typed in the coordinates for his original dimension on the portal gun to take Summer there. But, in that moment he's also speaking to Ricks, Ricks that he knows are from the Citadel and that he knows know who his Rick is, and pretty notoriously at that. So I think when he identifies himself as "Morty C-137", he's not identifying himself as the Morty of that dimension, but rather identifying himself as "Rick C-137's Morty".

So what the hell is Morty's original dimensional number??
