History
Background
Growing up, Sam and Dean were spoiled by their father who came to lead the organization known as HunterCorp. Sam and Dean hunted monsters across their world aided by their own plane and being paid for their work.
In 2020, their world was destroyed by God in a massive explosion. Sam and Dean fled through a rift in their car, a turquiouse Fiat, to escape the destruction.
Season 15
In Destiny's Child, the alternate Sam and Dean arrive through the rift in the Men of Letters bunker in the Main Universe. However, due to the destruction of their world, the rift malfunctions and pulls them back in. Sam and Dean become trapped between worlds, visible as ghostly projections on the wall of the bunker, but unable to see their counterparts or Castiel.
Later, Dean Winchester suggests using their counterparts to trick God in case he comes to check on them. Sam Winchester uses a variation of the ritual from the Demon Tablet to bring the alternate Winchesters into the Main Universe where the two sets of Sams and Deans are shocked by the lives the other has led and the differences between their worlds. Sam and Dean explain that God is planning to destroy their world too, but they intend to stop him and need their counterparts help. The alternate Dean is shocked to learn that God checks in on them and Dean explains that they have a sort of relationship and they need their counterparts to pose as them in case God does check in. The alternate Dean is shocked and affronted when Dean tells him that he will need to lose his fancy outfit and nearly refuses.
While the Winchesters, Castiel and Jack are gone, the alternate Sam and Dean follow the plan set out for them, sitting around drinking beer in the Main Universe Sam and Dean's clothes though he sees that alternate Sam has refused to get rid of the man bun, feeling that keeping it is a compromise for being forced to wear flannel. While alternate Sam enjoys kitten videos, alternate Dean finds and enjoys Dean's porn. Though the alternate Sam is disgusted, the alternate Dean envies their counterparts lives which, while simpler, includes a place of their own, no quarterly reports and no investor calls, leaving them only to hunt monsters, drink beer and watch porn. The alternate Sam agrees with his brother, realizing that Dean is right about how much better their counterparts simpler life is.
After returning to the bunker, Dean sends the alternate Sam and Dean off to new lives in Brazil, rejecting their offer to live together like a club. Dean tells them that Brazil is perfect for them: a place where the alternate Sam and Dean can enjoy a simple life away from hunting. To Dean's anger, the alternate Sam and Dean reveal that they found and drove the Impala before quickly leaving.
In Despair, alternate Dean was killed by God, after he decided to wipe out all of humanity, except Sam, Dean and Jack.
He was resurrected by Jack, as he restored everything after defeating God and taking his place.[1][2]
Personality
Due to his upbringing, this Dean is more uptight about the rules than his Main Universe counterpart. He also enjoyed wearing fancy clothing, but was more willing to adapt than his brother and liked wearing flannel. Another thing to note, Alternate Dean does not seem to share his counterpart's dislike of flying and even relished talking about it.
Though he enjoyed hunting, he admitted to finding it exhausting and enjoyed the simpler life his counterpart had, even asking to keep the flannel shirt he borrowed. He also took a liking to the main universe Sam and Dean been impressed that they were actually going up against God and even asking to live with them.
Like Dean, he maintains a strong love for his brother, who he affectionately calls "Sammy". He also respected his father, even sharing a toast with him to Sam after they got separated. Another thing to note, Dean also enjoyed taking the Impala out for a joyride despite driving a more modern car.
