I was misled into thinking that the problem was with pairing when it appears to actually be with the Wii Motionplus and Skyward Sword. I'm able to play Okami just fine.
I somehow managed to pair my Wiimote without entering a passcode. I haven't messed around to see if this will work in Dolphin while ignoring the System Preference pane, but I imagine it will.
