From what I've seen, Ness mains tend to use the following characters as secondaries or tertiaries.

Falco
King DeDeDe
Kirby
Jigglypuff
Marth
Toon Link
Wario
Yoshi

I suggest not using characters like Falco or Toon Link, though. If you want to learn to space better. Characters that are to space would Jigglypuff, Marth and Wario. Look those characters up and you'll see what I'm talking about. Of course don't let me stop you from using whoever you want.

You should space either way with every character anyway. Some people have said that after using a character like Marth, Jigglypuff or Wario, they found themselves spacing better than they normally would. Anyway, go with whoever you like.

That's fine. I was just bringing characters that are more commonly used by a Ness main.

If you live in NorCal, xoxokev, then I can see why you'd use Diddy Kong.

Laaawl, the Ness players seconding Falcon. Some people just love low tier <333 Gotta admit that the Captain's a badass though.

Anyways, in addition to Ness I play Marth, simply because he's always been my secondary. Also fun to counter-pick with him if my Ness isn't up to the task in a match. I play Kirby and Pit fairly proficiently as well.

Cool! I use Ness, Kirby, Wario and Marf. :)

Also, your avatar with Ness in his bed looks cozy, PsychoNess.

But my brother has Pit as a secondary. I don't really like using characters he uses.

If you want someone like Ness with strong aerials and great specials' mindgames . . . yeah, go Wario. I personally find that I do best with Marth, though. I am probably as good with him as I am with Ness and I play him about half as much. I will put in a plug for my boy, er . . . gorilla DK.

I brought up Kirby, though. Wario's aerial game was just too good to let go. I need to really learn how to fast fall with Marth.

Ness' bad match ups:

-Marth
-Snake
-MK
-Wario
-Toon Link
-King Dedede

So, a good secondary would probably be Falco. Just my opinion, I don't really have a secondary. I play a lot of characters.
