I don't necessarily mean who else do you play in general.
More like, let's have a discussion about the viability of certain characters as alts to cover squirtle's bad matchups.
Personally, I've been picking up Ike lately, and I think he's a near perfect complement to squirtle. He's literally our antithesis-- he's got range, power, and LOTS of priority.
Ike also brings different dynamics to some of squirtle's important matchups. Spacies for example, squirtle has to beat by trying to be faster and apply more pressure than the spacies, which is difficult. But switching to Ike lets the match be dictated by baiting and punishing with disgusting combos.
So, who are you picking up (if anyone) to cover your not-so-stellar matchups?
