From getting back into competitive smash and also looking at various tournament sets and matchup charts, here are the hardest ones:

:ultlucina::ultgnw::ultpalutena::ultchrom::ultshulk:
These five are commonly considered to be the top 5 hardest matchups for Ness. All 5 have good range, ESPECIALLY Shulk. With Ness' short range and relying on aerials to get in much of the time, it makes these matchups all significantly difficult. G&W and Palu can also edge-guard reasonably well from what I've experienced and seen.

They're not "unwinnable", but they are kinda close to it. You could pick up a secondary for those five, but Ness is able to beat all of them... even if it's an uphill battle for each through and through.

Yeah now that I think about it, some G&W and Palentenas were hard to play against
