a long period of time while Ratchet and Clank assumed he retired from villainy, but in reality, Nefarious was fed up losing time and time again that he planned to travel to another dimension where he always wins. After many years of searching, he found coordinates to a dimension then planned to use the Dimensionator from the Festival of Heroes and he discovered the existence of a parallel universe where he's the emperor. He subsequently forms an alliance with his alternate counterpart (voiced by Robin Atkin Downes) to invade and conquer all other realities but he ultimately ends up turning on the emperor after he decides to invade his home dimension delivering the final blow in his defeat.

Nefarious ensured that the target list included Umbris, an uninhabited planet with a core of pure moluvium that he knew would detonate once struck by the Deplanetizer, resulting in the Solana system being completely wiped out due to a rare orbital convergence and, Nefarious hoped, resulting in the Rangers being forcibly disbanded and ruined for failing to prevent the disaster. To ensure the success of his plans, he turns Drek
