is this motherboard already equipped with a bios for 3rd gen Ryzen or do I have to reflash it? if the latter how can I do that without AMD CPU?

I see the problem. The basic functionality of the processor, including Zen 3, will be guaranteed in any case, i.e. a POST will be possible even without a BIOS update. Afterwards, however, a BIOS update is needed for the system to run stably. Zen 3 requires the firmware AGESA Type 2 v1.0.8.x. This was rolled out at the beginning of September 2020. You asked your question in June 2020. The answer is therefore: No, if you bought the board in June 2020, you need a BIOS update to enjoy all the features of the new processor generation.

Bios flash works without a processor and without Ram, only with a USB stick and the flash Bios button above the first USB connector (rename Bios file to MSI.ROM and copy it to the root of the USB stick). Only ATX 24-pin and the two CPU power supplies must be connected to the power supply unit.

My question would be if this mainboard has a 3pin rgbheader for addressable rgb

On the current MB there is even a sticker on the packaging that says 3rd Gen ready, i.e. it works without flashing. What is bizarre is that MSI advises against bios updates on its website.

Don't complain here but to the customer service. Digitec is obliged to deliver with Swiss plugs.
