Recommended moves

• Dragon Attacker:Dragon BreathGlaciate
• Ice Attacker:Dragon BreathGlaciate

Kyurem is placed in a very odd position in Pokémon GO. Glaciate is an insanely powerful Ice-type Charged Move, but Kyurem lacks an Ice-type Fast Move, preventing it from becoming a top-tier Ice attacker. 😕

However, thanks to Dragon Breath, Kyurem can still serve as a solid counter to Dragon Pokémon, especially against those with a double weakness to Ice-type attacks (in addition to the usual Dragon-type weakness). 🐲

💎 Best PvE moveset: Dragon Breath, Glaciate

⚔️ Raids

Kyurem is a strong Dragon slayer, even outperforming Baxcalibur in DPS, despite Baxcalibur having both Dragon Breath and Ice Fang along with a higher ATK stat. 🙂

Dodging is recommended to ensure you can use Glaciate more frequently.

🛡️ Gyms

Legendaries can't be placed in Pokémon GO Gyms.

Recommended moves

• Ultra League:Dragon BreathGlaciateDragon Claw
• Master League:Dragon BreathGlaciateDragon Claw

Note: You absolutely need Glaciate for PvP as well. This exceptional move deals 60 DMG for just 40 energy and reduces the opponent’s ATK by 1 stage (0.8x). 😎

💎 Best PvP moveset: Dragon Breath, Glaciate, Dragon Claw

🔵 Great League

N/A

🟡 Ultra League

While Glaciate is a major threat, Kyurem lacks bulk in the Ultra League due to the format’s stat restrictions. That wouldn’t be a problem if Kyurem wasn’t weak to so many types, including the overpowered trio of Fairy, Steel, and Dragon. 😢

🟣 Master League

With many Master League Pokémon being weak to Ice-type moves, Kyurem with Glaciate is a serious threat. 🥶

Even in tough matchups, Glaciate’s ATK debuff can disrupt your opponent’s strategy. On top of that, Kyurem also has Dragon Claw, which is even cheaper (35 energy), making it a strong shield baiting tool. 🐲

However, Kyurem’s moveset is both its biggest strength and biggest weakness. It lacks a high-damage move capable of One-Hit KO (OHKO) potential. Combined with Kyurem’s 5 weaknesses (Dragon, Fighting, Fairy, Rock, and Steel), it struggles when shields are down.
