You can find out for yourself:

Python 3.4.0rc1+ (default:2ba583191550+, Feb 12 2014, 00:08:44) 
[GCC 4.6.1] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import dis
>>> def f():
...     a, b, c = 1, 2, 3
... 
>>> dis.dis(f)
  2           0 LOAD_CONST               4 ((1, 2, 3))
              3 UNPACK_SEQUENCE          3
              6 STORE_FAST               0 (a)
              9 STORE_FAST               1 (b)
             12 STORE_FAST               2 (c)
             15 LOAD_CONST               0 (None)
             18 RETURN_VALUE
>>> def g():
...     q = 2 + 3j
... 
>>> dis.dis(g)
  2           0 LOAD_CONST               3 ((2+3j))
              3 STORE_FAST               0 (q)
              6 LOAD_CONST               0 (None)
              9 RETURN_VALUE
