I'm looking to put Ribombee on a semi-competitive team. I'm already set with this:
Ribombee @ Expert Belt
6HP/252 SpAtt/252 Speed
Sweet Veil : Timid/Modest
-Quiver Dance
-HP Fire
-Bug Buzz
-Moon Blast
I'm having trouble deciding on if I should run Timid or Modest though. I'm not that great at competitive, but looking at Ribombee's stats, it seems like it's really fast, but it's Sp Att, while good, isn't good enough to secure KO's with a Quiver Dance under its belt. That's why I'm thinking I should maybe shoot for Modest so it can have more power behind its moves. I'm just worried about being outsped since it has paper thin defenses.
Any advice?

Run timid. Abuse dat speed. I don't know if it can last enough to get a quiver dance off though.

It's a glass cannon so you had better be prepared to face tough opposition.
Expert Belt won't be nearly as useful as you hope it will without a proper support setup from the rest of ur team to let it do its job.

Timid, and if you're using that stat spread, use Life Orb instead of Expert Belt.

Yea, I know it's a glass cannon. That's why I'm afraid to use the Life Orb. I just assume it's going to take a hit setting up Quiver Dance. After that, it can't afford to take any additional damage from the Life Orb.
Honestly, thought about putting a Focus Sash on it.
Still torn between Timid and Modest though. Are there any threats I'm being outsped by if I run Modest?
