need help practicing

[cronnix]

im trying to get good enough to beat a real life friend of mine who mains yoshi.
hes owned the game much longer than myself.
i main jigglypuff and iv read and watched many guides and tutorials for her
i can do rising/falling pound Dacus and im working on drill rest.
been practicing on wifii basic brawls for 2 months now.
but im still not confident in a 1vs 1 with my friends yoshi so i need advice or a little help in getting me to a more competitive level.

How is your edge game? Giggly puff should do well against Yoshi off the edge considering she has the multi jumps and he just has the secondary jump. Practice footstools and general attacks below and above the edge of the stage (against the computer, as edge guarding on wifi can be dangerous because of lag) to repel and destroy Yoshi. Get used to Yoshi's second jump and how he would typically need to use it to recover. It is also important to learn exactly how long you can be off the stage before you need to come back and what the possibilities for edge guarding would be within that time.

This may be enough to push your game over the top. If it isn't then you may need to practice the knitty-gritty stuff like mind games and reading your opponent's tendencies. Often it's simply not good enough to be very technically proficient; you have to be tricky and unpredictable as well.

im pretty good at wall of pain vs average players and preventing opponents from getting back up.
not sure if its just the skills of my wifii opponents or me tho.
if you think you could help me tommorrow ill get my brawl friend code on here.
i... threw away the paper i had it wrote on while cleaning up trash

I know I'm a couple days late answering you but I could probably do a few wifi matches and see if I can be of any help. Would you want me to try and use Yoshi or would you want me to just use my mains? We'd also have to schedule a time.
