How long have legendaries had 3 perfect IVs upon catching them?

Jan. 10, 2015

I have never been told this and only recently learned it; I was surprised by what excellent IVs my legends had…how lucky I thought I was to catch a Regirock with 3 perfect ivs and a nearly perfect in Attack xD and a Premier Ball on the first try…. but that’s irrelevant,

I suppose it’s only fair they implemented this, but seriously how long have they done this?

They started giving the legendaries 3 perfect IVs in X and Y. There’s also a chance that they increased the odds of getting more than 3 perfect IVs as well.

Fun fact: Special Pokemon such as the Cosplay Pikachu also have 3 perfect IVs.
