I'm currently playing Heart Gold, I've saved just before the Elder of Dragon's Den is about to give me an ExtremeSpeed Dratini, I've been soft resetting trying to get a good nature but also one with good IVs.

I'm a long time Pokemon player but IVs are the one mechanic I could never be bothered to learn about, since it is never mentioned in game and I don't play competitively. However I've decided that now is the time to learn. I've been using Serebii's IV calculator to see what potential my Dratini has.

I have just obtained one which apparently has these IVs:

HP: 2
AT: 31
DF: 20
SA: 23
SD: 23
SP: 3

It has a Quirky nature and its characteristic is 'Likes to trash about'.

Can someone tell me if these IVs are accurate and if they're any good? I know that 31 Attack is great but what about HP and Speed?

Should I keep this Dratini or reset and try for a different one?
