Looks like Meta Knight was ur punching bag for Brawl.

I'm gonna stick with Kirby cause I hate him and possibly Dr. Mario since he shouldn't have returned at all.

I usually use 3 characters, the heaviest, the lightest, and the one in between.
So Probably Bowser, Jigglepuff, and someone else. though until I see the tiers for weight in this game I really can't say.
The reason I do this is to test the kill %'s of every move.

Good idea, I do this as well. I think Shield Mode Shulk is the heaviest character in the game if you want to see what can KO him in that stance.

Mine was always Mario or Pit, since I personally don't like them much. Fortunately, now I've got twice as many punching bags.

But I do like the Sakurai Mii idea. His is already saved on my WiiU for when the time comes...

This is a pretty tough question! Because I'm using Robin first I'll probably use Captain Flacon as my dummy.

The one with the highest weight, the one with the lowest weight, and the one in the middle. Otherwise, I'll vary my punching bag.

Either Wario or Mr.Game & Watch. I don't like them and they make good punching bags.

I use a level seven Pikachu. It's not that I don't like him, it's that his weight is the perfect weight for my training.

I train against a high-leveled Bowser... at least until I get ROB, then I go ROB on ROB to the death.

I've always practiced against bowser. He's combo food.
Maybe also Mac, for the smaller hitboxes

Duck Hunt. I hated the idea at first. Saw the roster and decided it could be awesome like Game and Watch.
Saw gameplay and immediately hated it.

Normally I just set the computer to random unless I want to learn specific matchups. In Training Mode, though? I stick to Mario usually.

...Nothing against the guy, it's just that being middle ground in weight and fall speed, he's the best way for me to learn what moves kill when.

The random button. I don't dislike any character enough to keep beating them every training season.

Most likely Pac-Man.
Killed my hope for Snake.
And I don't like his move set and felt the lamest out of them all.

When it becomes a possibility, it'll be the Amiibo I get - which looks like it'll probably be Mario at this stage. :p
Until then, the Random button, unless I'm trying to learn specific matchups. :)

Meta Knight. Still hate him. It'll be blissful to beat the crap out of him whilst laughing manically at his nerfs.

In before Dark Pit.

...Well, I'm definitely too late for that. Honestly, the only character I've ever hated is Jigglypuff, but I don't see why you'd want a character to be on screen if you despise them so much. You're going to fight everyone anyway, why fight someone you don't even want to be there?

Basically what I'm saying is I hate even looking at Jigglypuff.
