Anything Goes Kyurem-W

Kyurem-White @ Utility Umbrella
Ability: Turboblaze
EVs: 40 SpA / 216 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sheer Cold
- Freeze-Dry
- Fusion Flare / Dragon Tail
- Roost

Kyurem-W has stood out as one of the most reliable Kyogre checks in AG thanks to its typing, good bulk, reliable recovery, and Sheer Cold immunity. It can use Sheer Cold itself, becoming a frightening wallbreaker by potentially OHKOing switch-ins like Blissey, Ho-Oh, and Necrozma-DM. Freeze-Dry lets Kyurem-W punish Kyogre, Zygarde-C, and Yveltal more reliably. Fusion Flare threatens Necrozma-DM, Ferrothorn, and Zacian-C on the switch. Dragon Tail can be used instead to phaze Calm Mind Kyogre and opposing Kyurem-W. Roost and Utility Umbrella are mandatory to consistently check Kyogre, and the EV spread lets Kyurem-W avoid a 2HKO from Choice Specs Kyogre's Water Spout. Kyurem-W is threatened by revenge killers like Calyrex-S, Eternatus, and Zacian-C, so checks to them such as Yveltal, Calyrex-S, and Necrozma-DM, respectively, are needed. Bulky Yveltal and Ho-Oh can provide Defog support, helping Kyurem-W to more reliably check Kyogre. Opposing Kyurem-W can check Kyurem-W if it lacks Dragon Tail, so checks to it like Zacian-C, Xerneas, and Marshadow make for good teammates; they also appreciate Kyurem-W's ability to threaten checks like Necrozma-DM and Ho-Oh.

Opposing Kyurem-W can check be annoying to deal with if Kyurem-W if it lacks Dragon Tail, so checks to it like Zacian-C, Xerneas, and Marshadow make good teammates who are appreciated. They also appreciate Kyurem-W's ability to threaten checks like Necrozma-DM and Ho-Oh being dealt with.

nice job
