Legendary Robin: neutral or +def -spd?

I have a +1 neutral Legendary Robin and just summoned a +def -spd one. I know spd isn't the best bane and will open her up to more doubles, but I will be running her on a team with Def Tactic 3 and 43+ def on enemy phase sounds very good. I have the Quick Riposte 3 SS to make up for her not doubling naturally as well.

I'd go with the neutral one. L!Grima is the fastest dragon so far and -spd would throw away the thing which makes her special. If you really want a defensive dragon, Fae, Now or A!Tiki are a lot better choices than her.
(And the 3 extra spd results in less doubles, which results in less damage taken, which 3 extra def wouldn't always fully do.)
-FV

Fae, Nowi and A!Tiki are a lot easier to merge too btw. So going +def -spd is not adviced since there are way better options for that.

Yeah, not getting doubled would be better defensively, and I use Nowi and A!Tiki so you're right in her fulfilling a different role too. Thanks for the advice, I'll stick with neutral!

+DEF -SPD is the same IVs as my Legendary Robin, I dislike it.
As much as I love the defence boon, her speed bane will make her get doubled more, lowering her survivability and enemies will activate their special skill more on her.

SO I SAY, Go Neutral.
Drop in a DEF + 3 Sacred seal and you have your +def Legendary Robin, go try it on Unit Builder, you will see, you get the same 43 Defence result on Def Tactic.

Thanks for the advice from experience! Avoiding doubles would definitely be better than 3 extra defense now that I really think about it. 40 def is already pretty great, and I'll definitely keep the def 3 seal in mind if I ever run into a situation where the 3 def matters. I'll stick with neutral.
