Perfect IVs?

The chances of getting a Pokemon with max IV's in all stats is 1/1,073,741,824. So if you get one without RNGing or cheating (well, I guess RNGing is cheating, in a sense), you prolly should have played the lottery instead of Pokemon.
Since most competitive Pokemon are min/maxed to do a certain task anyway, isn't breeding for more than 2 perfect IVs excessive?
Then again, I suppose I'm not as 'competitive' as some get...

I have been playing competitively for years and failed to understand just how important IVs are. I got the whole EV thing down and have improved drastically in competitve play, but I am not where I need to be. I agree with you Stratago about breeding for more than two perfect stat IVs to be quite excessive. On that note I have learned that Dittoes are the best for this. Where do I look for this in game or on the site for trades?
