A while back I advocated Kyurem to rise to B+. While I do enjoy Kyurem, I'm not sure if it deserves a rise. I do think Kyurem is better than all the other B rank mons, but I don't think it's as good as all the B+ mons. Mons like Latios, Bisharp, Tornadus, and Hoopa are much more consistent and serve a better purpose than Kyurem.
Sure Kyurem can hit common defensive mons with 4 attacks (Ice beam, Fusion bolt, Earth power, and HP fire) but I find that other mons just do it better. I think there's better options to pressure lando, tox/fini, growth teams. In fact mons like latios and bisharp who are both in B+ do almost the exact same thing but have better typing/speed. (Both of which I think deserve to rise but that's besides the point)
I find that, while yes, Kyurem poses a huge threat and has potential to break through virtually any team, that most of the time doesn't bust through teams. It's bad typing, low speed, and lack of extreme power keep it from being as effective against teams. Most of the time it either gets worn down to quick or has to forgo coverage causing it to be walled my common mons.
Kyurem just isn't independent or consistent enough to warrant a rise in my eyes.
Keep Kyurem B rank.
