I might just be bad but i always seem to have a lot of trouble with Toon Link. I find his projectile game very intimidating, especially considering how he can just throw stuff from a much further distance than Megaman and he can get some pretty easy kill confirms off his bombs.

Any tips?

Should i pick up a counter-pick character, any suggestions?

Pellets and leaf shield cancel out arrows and boomerangs, item blade trades vs bomb are in our favor. Play defensive with leaf shield while having blade in hand and punish his bomb attempts with item blade. Once he gets tilted and starts risky approaches, read his habits and punish. Megaman is very difficult to approach with leaf shield up and blade in hand.

The huge thing in this MU is punishing his bomb pulls. He has a ton of lag pulling out a bomb. If you know he's going to be pulling one you can go in, you can get him with a metal blade for some damage, you can tag him with a crash bomb and go from there. Just make sure to punish him for it, don't let him get a bomb out for free. Other than that, you can out camp him. If he has a bomb in hand, get a metal blade in hand, you're at in advantage at that point. You should be making him approach as you should be winning the camping war.
