Mewtwo's page holds incorrect and missing information

Upon researching I have found that Mewtwo's page holds incorrect and missing information. The "original" section of the page is missing information from the anime/manga/movie canon, and has incorrect information from the Game Freak storyline game canon, Pokkén Tournament canon, Super Mystery Dungeon canon and Pokemon Ranger canon. Pokkén's section needs Miracle Eye's secondary effect limited to only Shadow Mewtwo as is not accessible by normal Mewtwo in-game. Only Shadow Mewtwo can access this second effect as SM is who has access to Miracle Eye in Pokkén. Super Mystery Dungeon's incorrect areas are the IQ skills. The IQ mechanic was dropped as of Gates to Infinity, the game before SMD. The only way Mewtwo could gain the skills that previously were IQ skills would be by acquiring a game canon looplet or an emera to gain the skill. SMD is also where the "linked to all minds" comes from which is not 100% accurate. Yes Mega Mewtwo Y connected to all minds in the SMD world in the game story, but after that event it was never utilized again possibly hinting that the connection was not permanent, or could only be used by MMY in a case of extreme need like shown in the game. As for the missing parts in the anime/manga/movie canon this is more so about the standard equipment. It lists nothing of Mewtwo's iconic Psi Spoon or the armor he once had from Giovani. All it lists is items from the Game Freak games which are incorrect. The standard items never were shown to be held items by a Mewtwo in any game either caught wild or given as an event distributed pokemon. The Ranger issue is the "defense orbs" which is literally just multiple Shadow Balls rotating around Mewtwo. It would be great if that were stated instead of "orbs used for defense".
 
The IQ skills were around in earlier PMD games, and SMD didn't outright retcon them. Same way that GTI didn't have them either.
 
That may be true, but the IQ skills listed where made in Explorers of Time, Darkness and Sky which Mewtwo wasn't in plus those where the last game where IQ was a mechanic. Ever since the mechanic has changed. GTI had Team Skills in place of IQ and SMD has the Looplets and emeras that contain the skills that once upon a time were IQ skills.
 
Mewtwo gives you a challenge request in the post game of Explorers of Sky, maybe Time/Darkness as well. I also remember it happening after beating the legendary beasts, so it's not a one off cameo deal.
 
Oh I wasn't aware of that honestly, but still he is still in the most recent game so why not update the information to use the most recent game?
