Finally got my first shiny pokemon, but is Sableye viable without speed IV viable?

Given that Quash has no competitive value in the Singles format, I'm assuming this is a regular Sableye for Doubles/Triples. The Speed Ivs won't matter, unless you somehow find yourself in an opposing mirror match against another Sableye, so be sure to have something like a Fairy-type or a powerful special attack to take it out. Sableye can invest into a bit of Special Defense to take some hits against Mega Char Y, Heatran, Thundurus, but not against Sylveon or Mega Gardevoir. Though Will-O-Wisp can mitigate any defense investment, we are going to work with the Bold Sableye for a bit. Something like a balanced EV Spread like 252 HP / 36 Defense / 220 Special Defense is a good benchmark. Since Sableye's defense is higher than its special defense, you get more actual points every time the higher stats are invested. Of course the EV Spread can be changed in case you don't need like it.
