Why does Bulbapedia claim that Mrs Winter is Murph's grandmother? The dialogue in the game seems to indicate that she and Murph's father only recently met, and the only connection I got is that Pamur works close to where Winter lives.
Also, I know the outside-Japanese fandom seems pretty set in that the Rotom diary was written by Charon (who unquestionly wrote the notebook, but I mean the one written by a kid). In Japanese fandom, though, they seem convinced that the kid who wrote the diary was Cyrus. It seems pretty clear to me that it was Charon all along, despite the notebook trying to make it seem like he had only found the information later. The card game seems to support that it was Charon, given that his only card is about Rotoms and Cyrus, while having many cards, doesn't have anything to do with them. And Cyrus is specifically stated to have come from Sunyshore, while Rotom is found near Eterna (not to mention that to have a little pokemon buddy with that sort of bond prooooobably would have been something either of the people who knew Cyrus as a child would have mentioned, but they didn't). To me, just looking at the English text, it seems like the only thing that would connect Cyrus at *all* is that he liked machines and the diary kid had a toy robot, but that seems too general.
Is there anything in either of these cases that would have something in Japanese? Or are the people who do those just blowing smoke?
