I think I've got a 3rd party remote. It came off ebay, from china. I don't have a real one to compare though.
When I try to pair it asks for the PIN code. Happy to supply any more info.

Using bluez 4.96-3 package.
Tried pairing with bluez-simple-agent and blueman.
Always using the red sync button.

$ grep wiimote $(which bluetoothd)
Binary file /usr/sbin/bluetoothd matches
