With its sky-high stats, amazing coverage in Fusion Bolt and Icicle Spear, and gaining access to Dragon Dance, Kyurem-B excels as a powerful wallbreaker and late-game cleaner for Ice-type teams. Dragon Dance is used to further increase Kyurem-B's physical presence as a late-game cleaner. Fusion Bolt is a powerful Electric-type attack that allows Kyurem-B to handle Corviknight and Water-type Pokemon such as Toxapex and Pelipper. Icicle Spear is a handy coverage that lets Kyurem-B handle part-Ground type Pokemon who is immune to Fusion Bolt, such as Excadrill and Seismitoad. When combined with Fusion Bolt, the two attacks are capable of hitting at least neutral to nearly entire metagame. Substitute is used to set up against Pokemon who seek attempts to spread status, most notably Toxapex and Seismitoad. The EV spread in 52 HP allows Kyurem-B to set up in front of a Galarian Corsola as well, by allowing Kyurem-B to take one Night Shade from it. The remaining EV's are dumped in Attack and Speed to benefit best from Kyurem-B's raw physical stats as a late-game cleaner, by outspeeding targets such as Choice Scarf Excadrill, Cinderace, and Mimikyu. Leftovers provides passive recovery to Kyurem-B, allowing it to set up Substitute more consistently through the match. Heavy-Duty Boots allows Kyurem-B to switch consistently by negating entry hazards. However, Ice teams have good hazard control so Heavy-Duty Boots is less common for Kyurem-B.
With its access to Snow Warning paired up with Aurora Veil, Alolan Ninetales provides even safer setup opportunities For Kyurem-B. Furthermore, being a part-Fairy type Pokemon allows Alolan Ninetales to switch into Dragon-type attacks from foes such as Dragapult and Hydreigon. Mamoswine provides Stealth Rock for Kyurem-B, thus allowing Kyurem-B to wall break more efficiently. Mamoswine also provides a strong Earthquake, which can handle problematic Steel-types such as Aegislash and Ferrothorn. In return, Kyurem-B takes out Corviknight. Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan is a good offensive partner for Kyurem-B; with its raw power and access to coverage options in Earthquake and Flare Blitz, it can take out the aforementioned Steel-types. With its U-Turn, it can be used for safe pivoting on the switches as well. Choice Scarf Weavile is another decent teammate that improves Ghost- and Psychic-type matchups for Kyurem-B. Thanks to Choice Scarf, Weavile is capable of outspeeding Choice Scarf Jirachi, which poses an immense danger for Ice-type teams. Weavile also removes Eviolite from Galarian Corsola. Piloswine makes up a good Stealth Rock user for Kyurem-B while providing safe switches from Fire-type attacks from foes such as Dragapult. It also takes neutral damage from Rock-type attacks from foes such as Cloyster. Avalugg makes another decent partner for Kyurem-B, with its access to Rapid Spin. Furthermore, with Body Press Avalugg can pressure every Steel-type Pokemon besides Aegislash.
