We don't have much information in movies. In order to change that, I would ask for your help in clearing certain facts.
I have listed these characters and in which context they appear in. What you could do is just to provide context: what do the characters do in these movies, like a short description. I do understand some of these are cameo appearances (a split-second depiction), being shown in credits scene or are shown battling.
You could say something alike shown here in Wikstrom's biography, how the character used his Pokémon to battle but lost. I included Diantha in here because I don't know if, in the movie, she is just shown battling Wikstrom, or were there more scenes showing her.
You can write the descriptions here, in comments, or place them on my talk page. Help would be really appreciated.
