One of the characters you listed was Link, which is actually one of the other characters who I'd like. I just said Shulk because it's a popular request.

Link and Sora do have the following similarities:

1. Link and Sora technically travel between "worlds" in most of their games. (Skyloft and The Surface in Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess, Link between worlds)

2. Link and Sora both defend the light, if you consider the Triforce as "light"

3. Link and Sora both have a multitude of weapons that can be used to fight multiple bosses and gods.

4. Link and Sora, during portions of gameplay, have in the past had help from friends (epona, Midna, various NPC's) to help them advance their quest.

5. Link and Sora technically have goofy personalities (Although link doesn't speak, there are multiple instances in which Link does make goofy faces or perform stunts that would be weird for most others, such as smashing barrels and jars to find rupees)

6. Link and Sora both have a dark counterpart in which they had to fight in order to advance gameplay.

7. Link and Sora both have alternate versions of themselves that are playable in games (Toon Link, Roxas. Toon Link isn't technically Link, but alternate universe, which is still an alternate version of himself)

8. The ability to perform magic against enemies.

9. Both have played various minigames that are optional quests.

10. Almost all final bosses they have fought have been (debateably) more powerful than they were, and they still came out victorious.

and the thing that sets them apart:

11. They're both powerful humans that have proven themselves able to fight on their own, without the help of a Godly force looking over them.

I've thought about this a lot more. Shulk vs Sora was only because it's a popular suggestion. I didn't clarify that. Sora vs Link is not as popular, but has most of the similarities between Pit and Sora, but have their own take on doing their own thing, and is a much more fair fight since both of their fighting styles and gameplay are much more similar in execution, and there's no "Godly Force" driving their own fighting style between the two.
