I'm wondering the same. Been trying to learn them for a while now and I have NO IDEA how exactly I'm supposed to play. They feel so different from most other characters.

L+R+A+START pick a different character, this characters trash
This was going to be my suggestion. Their standard attacks are too narrow and their comeback is awful to justify their nifty projectile/trap aggression. Bowser Jr. is bad but potentially has good matchups/stages, and likewise with Little Mac. But I can't really think of when you'd want to use Duck Hunt.

Chasedown->followups with the clay pigeons, or forcing them into smash or f-tilt traps with the shockingly powerful can are the two basic strategies I feel like, but there are so many weird idiosyncrasies with the timing of the B and Side-B.
