Hi there, I used to main Pokemon Trainer (was probably best in california with him) but I ended up switching to diddy because I came to the conclusion that pokemon trainer just isnt really a tournament player, but thats a whole other story.


Ok well here I am playing with the top 3 players in Modesto ,California, and i recently picked up Diddy and just wanted some feedback. Keep in mind that I havent watched any videos so I am not sure if im playing him right.

http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=36C92C3DEE2DF5D0


This contains Diddy vs Snake (This is a friend of mine who has been busy so he cannot make tournaments but he is a very solid player)
Diddy vs Peach (this is andres sheik, he was trying to find a counter to diddy kong, he is the sheik player)
Diddy vs Toon Link (this person gets top 5 in almost all the tournaments, and we have very good people in california here, meep, dsf etc)
Diddy vs Sheik (very good sheik, considered one of the best on smashboards)

That is the playlist.

Also keep in mind vs the peach and sheik videos, Sheik is EXTREMELY aggressive, Andre (Choknater) has the best sheik ive seen, and the only way I found a way to beat him is to be extremely cautions and defensive so thats not my normal playstyle, i felt like the victim the entire match.

Vs peach, it was my first time playing a peach and half the game i was learning how to play her.


These videos are against very good players so keep that in mind, thanks, please help me get better =)

That toon link gets top 5 at all of the tournies...?

BTW play faster :p not too bad though. I'd say mess around with the bananas more, thats about it.

More glide tossing imo also try to get in the habit of when you grab to hit A 1 or 2 times to hit them before you throw it doesn't help much but its free damage. You and your opponent need to stop just jumping around on the edge.
