Black Kyurem is a fusion of Kyurem and Zekrom, and the version mascot of Pokemon Black 2. Since I haven’t read anything about the game (avoiding spoilers), I don’t know how you get it or anything. It has Zekrom’s ability of Teravolt, and can learn Fusion Bolt, Zekrom’s (former) signature move. It also has the signature move Freeze Shock, an Ice move that can paralyze (since Zekrom is Electric type). It can’t learn Glaciate, normal Kyurem’s signature move though.

Black Kyurem, like normal Kyurem, is quite asymmetrical. One side has features of Kyurem and the other has features from Zekrom. Its chin is also very very pointy.

Stat-wise, it has the second-highest base stat total, after Arceus. It has massive Attack, at 170, it’s second to Attack form Deoxys. It seems rather overpowered, because it can learn high-powered physical moves like Fusion Bolt, Freeze Shock, and Outrage. It has relatively low Speed and Sp Defense though.
