Try to exert pressure by using the zoning moves in mid to close range and bait an impetuous attack. If you rush in against Sheik, she'll have a myriad options to counter. The amount of options she's got also makes it hard to distill some sort of pattern in the player's game (i.e. she can do a...

As I adduced in the beginning; it will depend on the character, but a general rule is not to let her get within the CQC. Nonetheless, since you said that you 'can't get in against a Sheik', it is comprehensible that solely zoning will not quite win you the game.. In fact you'll just get needled...

Therefore I would suggest that, like you eventually did successfully with your nimble Shulk, you ward her off with (primarily retreating) zoning moves (Marth's F-air, Shulk's N/F/B-air, Ike's N-air / B-air(?) etc.) and try to shieldgrab as much as you can (considering the majority of grabs are...

You might've noticed that I whiffed some grabs, but since it's Sheik, I can incur the marginal amount of lag that it produces. Similarly, f-tilt / d-tilt / jab / n-air / f-air / b-air are barely punishable.
