Elymas + Wandering Spirit

If I use Elymas the Sorcerer's SA to discard an evil character and I choose to discard Wandering Spirit he'll just go to the bottom of my deck instead correct?

Indeed he goes to the bottom but it was ruled awhile ago that elymases ability doesn't kick in because it was insteaded.

Insteaded?
The demon would have been discarded by Elymas, but Wandering Spirit sent the demon below draw pile instead.  Therefore the discard never actually occurred (it was "insteaded") and Elymas' cost was not paid, so you don't get the benefit of the rest of his ability.

Ahhh I see. So putting him beneath the draw pile is basically worthless?

Yes, it's pretty much worthless.  Tartaros is handy here.

Tartaros doesn't help either because that is also ruled an instead ability.
