[Forgive my necroposting]

This image was taken a while back when I was very active exploring the Nether (before I decided to dimension it and find a Nether equivalent for the Far Lands, after which I grew bored and nearly had to stop playing because of college) and provides some serious evidence to the idea that zombie pigmen spawn in groups of threes in the Nether (at least in the version that I had used at the time, update 0.14.3) as baby zombie pigmen don't normally spawn next to each other, not even in groups of threes. As I was traveling around fighting them, I almost always found them either in groups of threes or in groups of multiples of threes. This deviates strongly from the spawning of magma cubes or wither skeletons, which normally spawn in ones (or occasionally twos). I would provide gameplay video noting the occurance, but I believe others could go in and find the same phenomenon when hunting Zombie Pigmen in creative mode.
