Yeah that is a problem. After all, Yoshi and Boo don't exactly work, and it's even weirder if Rosalina's partner turned out to be Blooper.

Basically, it's not easy when generics are being deconfirmed as being playable, as it can heavily limit the inputs that you can think up. Also, there's the type balance to take into account; excluding the Miis, there would be "3" characters for each of the 6 types that I've inputted.

Rosalina should get Lubba or something

Well again there's the type balance issue, as Donkey Kong, Wario, and Bowser already occupy the Power type slots. Lubba would break that balance, unless he played as a different type; probably Defense.
 
I want Lubba playable

But odds are, we'll get H. Queen for Rosalina's partner instead
 
I have a similar feeling, but it's more related to the character types. Mario Power Tennis didn't exactly utilize the character types in a balanced manner after all.
 
There is a serious lack of defense characters and all-round characters, that's for sure.

That, and there were one too many Technique and Power characters. Petey was an amusing inclusion, but really, his head is just a huge target for getting hit by tennis balls.

For Koopa Paratroopa, it used to be a Tricky character; Bowser Jr. and Tricky type don't exactly mix, but his footwork probably wasn't fast enough to be treated as a Speedy character; Yoshi is more suited as being All-Around nowadays.

Of course, even with those adjustments, the Defense type would still be short by "1", and that's because Petey is too strong to be a Defense type character.

Oh please no. That would be as bad as Queen Bee.

And I also do not want any other Kong's apart from Donkey, Diddy and Dixie. I really don't want to see Candy.
