+atk -hp is much better in both boon a bane, with +spd he reaches only 36 spd which is barely enougth to avoid doubles, -def is worse than -hp and +atk helps Black luna's dmg

He is going to be on my mixed team with Nowi and my armor team, which has Armor March.

Ok, the answer isn't entirely clear to me. +atk -HP is probably what you want for bold fighter.

+spd -def is an IV chosen for blocking doubles with the help of something like atk/spd bond and hone armour, which would put him at 47 spd before ally support. With 63 atk you can activate black luna using just heavy blade (and warp powder is great with the bond), or you can put QR or vengeful fighter to guarantee a double if your opponent is too fast (just block their double and double back; on player phase he'll double easily against pretty much every bold fighter)

+atk is still the best IV, armors don't have to worry about spd, this applies even more to Zelgius who can run the best mixed phase build

If you don't buff his spd and add a spd-boosting A-skill, I agree that his player phase is unimpressive with 36 spd. That, unless all you want to do is cut through slow tanks, in which case just take +atk -HP.

With +spd he has the potential to block doubles, which was the main reason for choosing +spd on Zelgius (besides your only other copy being something like +res -atk) before special fighter arrived.

For Bold (or Vengeful) Fighter, run +Atk. For any other build (of course not Wary, but who would use that on Zelgius lol?), I would suggest running +Spd, that way he can get a few crucial Speed points, and the -Def nature can actually help him in triggering whatever B skill he has in its place (Wrath, Vantage, etc.)
