Boundary Pokémon

DragonIce

Dwelling within it is a power even greater than that of Reshiram or Zekrom, but the extreme cold keeps that power bound.

Strategy Overview

Kyurem functions as a PP-stalling setup sweeper, able to deplete the low-PP moves commonly found in Ubers like Dynamax Cannon, Sunsteel Strike, and Astral Barrage. Unfortunately, that is where Kyurem's niche starts and ends, as it is outclassed offensively by Kyurem-B and Kyurem-W, as well as Rayquaza, and it offers next to nothing defensively, especially when compared to Eternatus.
