TV shows come out with a Pilot, which often contains things that the writers later change as they develop the storylines further. For example, Renard had grey hair at first and was also portrayed as a sort of villain early in the series. Renard's hair gradually lost the grey...and he eventually became one of the good guys in the show.

Maybe the show-runners think that most people won't notice these things, or that we will forget details that were given in the beginning? I don't know. Aunt Marie said things that were inconsistent with what Kelly later told Nick. Marie told nick to "leave Juliette"...and then Kelly told him later to not leave the people he loved. Marie had also told him that his mother was dead. And why didn't Aunt Marie tell Nick that his mother was still alive? That seems like something that she would have told him as she was dying. My guess is, that the writers had not decided to bring Kelly back from the dead...yet...in the early episodes. So when Aunt Marie told Nick that there were "only a few Grimms" left in the world, we don't know if that is something that the writers are going to stick to...or if that is just something that Aunt Marie believed. Because in addition to Nick, we have been introduced to 3 more Grimms as the show progressed. I think that they are still 'rare', especially since 2 of those Grimms are now dead...but the show is free to bring in more Grimms in future episodes, as they see fit.
