Their are a few ways to check.
1: if it was a legitimate event pokemon then check the original trainer (OT) of the Pokemon it should say something like a shop or a event2013 or something similar like that.
2: check if the Pokemon has an event ribbon. If it is then it's a good chance its legitimate.
3: try trading it on the GTS. If the Pokemon is fake the GTS wont allow you to put it up for trade. but if it does then its a legitimate Pokemon.
if i find any other ways ill let you know. Also hope i helped

Some extras ways to complete what @Wayne said:
1: Check if the Pokemon is Shiny, and check the IVs. Generally, but not all the times, a 6IV Shiny is hacked.
2: As of Gen 6, all Pokémons who have 510 EVs are reduced to 508 EVs. 509+ EVs are now hacked.
3: Event ribbons doesn't necessarily means that it's not hacked. Some hackers can be clumsy enough to modify their Pokémons, and forget to remove an Event Ribbon on a Non-Event Pokémon.
4: Obvious hacks, such as TH/HMs that the Pokémon can't learn. (Pokemons in that case can't get sent to Pokebank, normally)
5: Event Pokemons don't have a Trainer ID. They have a unique, fixed Event ID.

I think some ribbons you can get from event Pokemon prevent the Pokemon from being traded. You can hack to get an event Pokemon if you have knowledge of how to make it. Either way, if it's hacked but appears to be an event one then who cares if it's hacked anyway? Obvious hacked Pokemon are ones that can never be shiny by any means like Zekrom and Reshiram.
