Ok i know you have the staraptor for the HP check. but why not have it for the HP and the speed check if you are trying to catch a pokemon with an ability that shows before battle?
Get the staraptor or staravia to one speed point below the legendary, and if the legendaries ability activates first (like desolate land) then proceed with the battle. Then you can use final gambit for the HP IV check.
This is especially useful if you are just going to masterball it anyways.
