I recently hatched a full-odds Shiny female Burmy while trying for a Shiny Mothim and was initially going to postpone raising her in hope that she would eventually get an alternate evo in the future (see the Australian female bagworm moth), but it's been eating at me and I decided that I'll evolve her into a Sandy Cloak Wormadam. (I know this nature is better-suited -- although still not ideal -- for Plant Cloak, but I prefer Sandy Cloak.) She has the best IVs in all stats except ATK (no good) and Speed (decent, but I can Bottle Cap that) and has the Anticipation ability.
I know this is an awful -- maybe even hopeless -- Pokémon to work with, but I want to know what the best possible set for her would be under these circumstances. I'm not really into competitive and may not ever even use her, but I would at least like her to be moderately useful in casual battles in case I decide to in the future (I might use her in a Mono-Bug team, although I have no plans to use a Baton-Passing Ninjask).
I'd like to use Quiver Dance to compliment her Timid nature and it would be nice if Shadow Ball could fit in (it's one of my favorite moves), but I'm at a loss.
Any ideas? EV and item recommendations are also appreciated.
