These look fine at a first glance, but to be sure we'd need caught location, level and date (even on non-blue pentagon, just the region is fine), IVs (check with the IV checker guy and report his results), and maybe any ribbons they have just in case.

This is 6th Gen native, yes (has blue pentagon)? Then it's fine. All Legendary Pokemon received in 6th Gen (whether in-game or via Event) have a guaranteed 3 IVs of 31. Seems like it's just an SRed Suicune from ORAS.

Nothing that says "I'm definitely hacked".. BUT there are a few suspect things. being at level 50 with those moves is kinda strange, not impossible but definitely strange. Getting a shiny starter in Iki Town is again not impossible but the math & time behind that.. doesn't favor the player, better to breed for one. I would check IV's. If they're all maxed I would say definitely hacked.

Endgame you get to go to a place called battle tree. There's a guy standing next to the PC there. Talk to him and he adds a "judge" option to the bottom of your PC screen. It'll display IV's in the same way EV's are displayed when you press Y in a summary page.

If you would like, you could trade the rowlet over to me for a minute to check the IVs.
(Or the other guy that quoted you might be able to)

Let me know if I can help. :)
