He could seach around these boards and read some threads, especially the stuck ones. He can find the video thread so as to know how other rob plays, the Q&A thread where he can ask any doubt that it will be solved, etc. But posting a video would be very important for him as people can point out his mistakes and advice him to get better.

From the first Vid, you're eating way too much lucario Dair. Don't challenge lucario from below (example at 0:20 you hit him with dsmash then follow up with bair). Also you need to stop approaching/retreat more (example at 0:38 you shield a Fsmash then proceed to move forward into a Fair. After hitting him with Nair at 0:34, you should be retreating and looking to punish his landing. You did a good job at 2:00-2:10, see how you stop his approach with aerials and hit him with lasers?) You need to grab more. You had easy opportunities at 1:05, 1:16, 3:16, etc. You also roll/sidestep too much because you plant yourself down on a spot (example 2:15-2:20 after hitting him with dtilt, you don't move from that spot and projectile. Try to retreat and laser or move forward to gain control over the center of the stage. Same thing at 3:46-3:50). I like the use of your jabs, but try following up your first jab with a grab or dtilt. If they shield your jab, dtlit > ftilt can push them away and keep you safe.
Good luck, hope my input helps :D

Alright here's my two cents nova.
Form the first vid, you react to hits badly, sir. You bair/Nair/Dair/airdodge out of hits quite often, they are not your best options most of the time. Try spamming Fair more after you get hit, it comes out alot faster and helps you momentum cancel. Also, there are instances where you plant yourself down and watch how the opponent approaches. Rather, you should either retreat and RAR a laser/gyro or move closer to control the center of BF (Like you do between 2:18-2:21). Against glide attack, just shield >grab or Dsmash if he lands behind you, but make sure not to shield too early because he will just cancel glide and tornado. On your first stock, you should have retreated high to avoid getting gimped/stage spiked at around 0:55, 0:58 and 2:06. One last thing, after you gyro, try not to get held up watching your gyro, move and prepare to laser (Example at 2:50, you lose all of your momentum because you stop after gyroing and stay on the platform)

Omni also pointed out my AD haibts and how it's getting me killed. Fairing is a better option than the others; I played Takeover yesterday and killed him while he was hitting me 
. I also need to implement RAR and the recovery issue into my game more. Thanks sneakytako.

I watched the second vid and thought you need to jab more. If you know that Shield grab isn't going to work, OOS jab is a pretty good option, it can hit behind ROB unlike grab.

Sigh why am I the only one interested in posting ROB tips...
Alright Koing heres what I think:
First, this DK has no idea how to play the ROB matchup. That being said, you made a lot of simple mistakes. First off, is 1:52-1:55. Why would you approach a DK with a fresh stock inside the center of the stage? You should have camped the edge and concentrated on ticking on as much percent as possible and expanding your lead. Not to mention, a fresh DK is going to have all of his moves fresh, and at low% he might be able to trade a KO move with his Donkey punch with super armor and such. 2nd, you dsmash too much, particularly out of glide toss and spot dodge. Better players with read such habits, the DK could have done a Bair against most of your Glidetosses to cancel the gryo, evade the Dsmash and hit you all at once. Try mixing it up Glidetoss followups with grabs/Fsmash/Upsmash and aerials. You also don't use jab and Ftilt at all, Ftilt is really amazing in this MU. If the DK is poking you with Bair, either read his Bair and PS > OOS fair, or move back and spam ftilt, and jab when he gets close.

Doesn't seems there isn't much action on this thread right now, but I'll put a game of mine here anyway.
I've been trying to pick ROB as a secondary, but it seems I'm lacking a few aspects of the rob playstyle, and I'd really appreciate any pointers on whats wrong with my play and whats should I work on.
Here's a game vs Stroumbert, a top canadian falco:

Alright, just a few things I picked out...
First vid
Didn't see any pummels when you did grab.
Quite a few missed lasers
You don't seem to tap B when you use upB at all, it saves fuel.
Glide Tossing seeems like it could use some work too as Fu mentioned.
Dash -> Shield got old fast... surprised he didn't start grabbing you for it.
Second vid
0:25 ~ Ledge drop bair is a beautiful thing... it would've worked great here
3:40 ~ FINALLY REFLECTED THE AS. He threw out a ton of fully charged ones and I was waiting to see you reflect one since the first game.
Um I'm not really the best at this either -looks at huge gap in match with no comment-... I would try to throw in some gyro canceling too, its a really nice tool to have.
