Title is self-explanatory. I've tried :4kirby:, :4rob:, :4duckhunt:, :4pacman:, :4mewtwo:, and :4bowser:, but I feel they either suffer from the same issues as :4gaw: or they don't really fit my playstyle. Which characters would you Game and Watch mains recommend as secondaries?

My preferences (in the order of characters I feel I have the most potential with) are :4pikachu::4ness::4mario::4jigglypuff::4duckhunt:. Pikachu used to be my brawl secondary so I may want to give him more of a shot in the future.

My secondaries:
:4pacman:Works great for covering G&W, except he has a bit of a learning curve and :rosalina: is consequently my archenemy.
:4duckhunt:Pocketed for goddamn RosaLuma

Examples I know/ have tried
:4rob:Puts in a lot of work as a G&W secondary, but if he doesn't fit your playstyle that's OK
:4megaman:Same here, but has even more advantages against the type of play that usually beats G&W
:4villager:I know a Villager main who secondaries G&W, they seem to cover each other's weaknesses well


Theoretically, I think the best G&W secondaries would be
:rosalina::4yoshi: and maybe :4tlink:
If defensive play beats your Mr. G&W, these characters will destroy those opponents
:rosalina:BECOME YOUR ENEMY-probably a hassle to learn though, i dunno
:4yoshi:,:4tlink: Both are much faster than G&W and act as well-rounded Rocks to the Scissors that cut G&W's Paper
