I picked Luigi in Melee because he was always my favorite Character, and no one else appealed to me but him.
In Brawl I shifted to DeDeDe, then Olimar, then Snake, then Pokemon Trainer, then I ended up with my current main, Ness.
I picked Ness because I think MagnumSonic told me that I use projectiles so much that Ness would be perfect for me (along with some other basic reasons, but that was the main one).
So, how about you?
I use Olimar because everyone said he was bad and I like the Pikmin games.
I use Pokemon Trainer because I almost never saw another person play as him.
I use Wario because he has super DI.
And I use Jigglypuff because its Jigglypuff.
Mains:
Peach:always had a thing for Peach
Zelda: wasn't my first choice as a main but I do well with her so i kept her
Toon Link: see Zelda
Secondaries:
PT: Love Squirts speed and Ivy's power, Charizard not so much
ZSS: I guess I like the ladies
Jigglypuff:love her aerial game
Snake main
Samus and DeDeDe on the side. Though I'm still working on my DeDeDe
I use Meta-Knight because he is a combo beast. And he is really fast, so it's hard to repel him. And 'cause he has a cape. :O
I also use DK because he is very poweful and the fastest power character IF you use him right.
Last but not least, Diddy because his move-set is unique and can trap opponents when used correctly.
I have a few more, but these 3 are my best.
Because link is my favorite
Well I picked Pit because I was naturaly good with him. First thing I did was go online with him and beat a guy into the ground.
My Second is Sonic. Even thoughhes almost impossible to play online and I have to force myself to be even decent with him he is my favorite video game character (my first game that I beat was Sonic CD)
Honestly, I still don't know who I'm best with. My list has increased too.
Lucas
Toon Link
Ike
Zelda
Zero Suit Samus
Wario
Olimar
Samus
I'm sure there's more. :D
So to answer the question...I don't know because I don't know who my main is yet.
Luigi because of his up special. I can get the "ping" very easily now. I also enjoy how G&W was buffed up a little. I loved him in Melee, so this made it better in Brawl. Luigi's moves I had to get used to as they changed a little since Melee.
Sonic: Im best with fast characters
G&W: Very sturdy and has great moves
Diddy Kong: Strong for his size, and im prooving he's good in the hands of someone who can use him.
DeDeDe: Very strong and accurate
C. Falcon: Strength and speed
Diddy solely for the reason he is my main in nearly every game, weird, I never intend him to be...
Toon Link: I've sworn to use and master Toon Link, and I stand by that. I'm decent with him, and I can rack up damage pretty quickly with him.
Fox: He's fast, I can get out of a jam easily, and I can cheese you until you're off the platform, falling to your death.
Lucas: Not only is he powerful, but I can keep foes away with his Special Moves. He's the powerhouse of the group.
Diddy is a crap flinging piece of s*** that has a terrible recovery.
metaknight cause hes fast and has continuous airstrikes
many people say he is cheap but then again they suck with him
i like to thing i have skill as a fast, multi hitter
Ness, because I never had the time to master him in 64, and he looked like he could do a LOT of neat stuff. (Which he can.)
Ike because he's powerful and I always liked using characters that had swords in Melee. Ike is my lucky character even though I have never played the Fire Emblem series. ;D
Sonic: Favorite videogame character
Wolf: Fits my gameplay style
Snake: I just felt like being good with him.
:D
I use Captain Falcon in Brawl because he's got good speed and sweet attacks. It's easier to hit people with the Falcon Punch thanks to it's reversibility. The Knee is harder to land on any good players, but it comes up occasionally, especially against larger characters.
With most characters, Brawl feels like a defensive games. Many characters rely on projectiles while others focus on well-ranged and high-priority attacks to distance themselves from their enemies. Captain Falcon's speed gives a little more room for quick retaliation and better mindgames. Although his combo ability is a little lacking, his speed can allow him to outsmart an opponent and get in plenty of hits.
In Melee, my main is Fox, once again because he is both a fast and strong character. High-priority attacks combined with speed make it easier to get hits in on opponents and valuable attacks like his usmash and shinespike allow him to finish off his opponents.
I don't have a main in Smash 64, mainly because I haven't played that game as much as the other two (even though I have it). I basically just whatever character I feel like using at the time.

As for my others:
Pichu: I liked Pikachu's moveset, but Pikachu wasn't fast enough for me, and his headbutt wasn't satisfactory. I tried Pichu, and he was faster AND his headbutt worked wonders!
Dr. Mario: He is, in fact, more powerful than Mario, but just as fast. (Just by a LITTLE bit though.)
Mario: LOVED his moveset. Plus, he was fast, strong, and fell fast (enough.). Plus, he has a reflect move. >:D
Link: Loved his projectile moves, loved his grab, loved his aerial attacks. Was a little laggy and slow, but his attacks made up for it.
C. Falcon: Fast AND strong. (At least, in 64.)
Ganon: Same with C. Falcon, except slower, but more powerful. Plus, he didn't go flying as far as the Captain.

Don't forget that he's heavier than Mario.

I didn't know that, actually. :D
Maybe that's why I was WAY greater with the Doc than I was with Mario; just as fast, but more powerful and harder to KO!
And people said they were the exact same thing. :D

The fact he's heavier is part of the reason I stuck with the Doc in Melee instead of Mario.
But now that there's no Doc I'm sad. I have a better Luigi to fill the void, however.

I was good with Luigi origionally in 64 and Meelee.
I was basically good with everybody SOMEWHAT except Zelda, Shiek, Yoshi, Pikachu, DK, Bowser and Mewtwo. :-\ Everybody else I was good with.
Toon Link- Im decent with him
Pit- Same as TL
Mario-Luigi-Wario- They fit my style, but im just average with them
MK and Marth- I don't like using them much anymore, but they fit my style too well to drop.
Main: Ike.
Ike because he is fast and strong.
______________________________
Secondaries: TL, Wolf, Olimar.
Wolf because I can rack up tons of damage.
Toon Link because of his Down Aerial.
Olimar because of his grabs and aerials.
Pikachu=don't know why, but I used him a lot in Melee, and he was still my best last time I checked
Toon Link=I love Zelda games, but I like small fast characters, so I use Toon Link instead of TP Link
Pokemon Trainer=I'm still shocked at how Charizard made it into Smash as playable--it's like the one big thing that I and lots of other pokemon fans had always wished but never seriously thought possible; the fact that he comes with two smaller, faster fighters doesn't hurt either
Kirby=probably my favorite Nintendo character, and while he may never recover from how much they weakened him in Melee, it's nice to see he got a slight power boost in Brawl
Everyone has to agree that Rob is one of the- if not THE most annoying characters to fight against. Also losing is not as bad as losing to Rob.
