"General SSBM advice desperately needed!!"

I've owned SSBM since last Friday and have played it at every possible chance. However, truth is, I trully stink at this game!!
To add insult to injury, I've recently signed up for an SSBM tourney at my local games shop and I really need to work on my game.

Any generaly tips/advice that can be given will be greatly appreciated! Who's the best character to use? I'm quite good at using Bowser or Samus. Are they good choices? HELP ME...PLEASE!!!

Make sure you get EVERY pokeball. You'll just need to release one good pokemon on everyone and there done for (especially since some of the more powerful pokemon can do up to and over 70 in one attack). Alternatively, make sure you get your grubby hands on a lips stick/baseball bat if it appears. Become proficient with them and you'll KO everything.

Another good weapon to look out for is the Super Scope, charge that little bad boy up and say goodbye to the oposition.

What really sets Experience players from beginners/button bashers is the use of rolling.

Samus is especially good at rolling.

Hold down L or R to sheild and then tap left or right to roll.
Not only does this allow you to dodge and counter heavy moves (it takes practice, but master it and you'll be so invincible, only I will be able to beat you! ;-) ) it makes you look very good and impressive and will send your opponent into a panicked button bashing frenzy of fustration (witch you'll have no problems avoiding and countering if you've practiced well enough) giving you a stylish, impressive-looking victory.

Could someone help me on the home run thing?

this link dosn't work - sorry. doh.

Don't use Samus, she runs like a retard. Roy and Marth are good characters to use, they're counter move (B + down) will block all pyshical attacks and then do a smash attack back to them. Sheild breaker and Roy's equivalent are also incredibly powerfuf moves, when Roy's is fully charged it is a one hit KO move!
Dr Mario is damn good if you learn his moves, he can block and counter as well as hitting multiple enimies with the tornado attack.
