As you may or may not know, Kyurem-B is a bit weak for ubers, so it is now being considered for ou and can be used in the ou suspect test tier on showdown (I don't know about PO). I decided I wanted to join in on the fun and make a team containing Kyurem-B.

Abomasnow@Expert Belt

Ability: Snow Warning
EVs: 252 Att / 144 SpA / 112 Spe
Lonely
~Wood Hammer
~Blizzard
~Ice Shard
~Hidden Power Fire
I wanted to make a hail team mostly because I wanted Kyurem-B to be able to use Blizzard due to a lack of a good physical ice STAB attack. Concerning Abonasnow, with Expert Belt it can bluff a choice set; Ice Shard KOs some dragons and Landorus; HP Fire roast Ferrothorn and Forrestress; the other two moves are strong STABs; 112 Spe EVs outspeeds no speed base 70s; the remaining EVs are thrown into offense.

Kyurem-B@ Choice Scarf

Ability: Teravolt
EVs: 252 Att / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naughty
~Outrage
~Dragon Claw
~Blizzard
~Fusion Bolt
I considered a non-choice set with Roost for reliable recovery, but with a Choice Scarf, Kyurem-B is a great revenge killer, and its sub par speed is remedied. STAB Outrage coming off a 170 base attack does major damage to anything not steel; Dragon Claw, unlike Outrage, allows me to switch after attacking; STAB Blizzard still hurts coming off a 120 base special attack; Fusion Bolt hits bulky waters.

Infernape@Life Orb

Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 252 Att / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive
~Close Combat
~Overheat
~U-Turn
~Mach Punch
Infernape is here mostly to KO Tyranitar, Scizor, and Breloom (as long as it hasn't taken too much prior damage). CC and Overheat are powerful STABs, U-Turn gains momentum, Mach Punch is priority powered up by Iron Fist. I'm not sure whether to run Blaze or Iron Fist because it does take a lot of passive damage and gets into Blaze range quite easily.

Reuniclus@Leftovers

Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 Hp / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold
~Calm Mind
~Recover
~Psychic
~Focus Blast
Standard Calm Mind Reuniclus covers fighting types and destroys stall teams. That's about it.

Skarmory@Leftovers

Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 Hp / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish
~Spikes
~Roost
~Whirlwind/Stealth Rock ???
~Brave Bird/Stealth Rock ???
Skarmory is my physical wall, spiker, and phazer. I'm open for replacements.

Tentacruel@Black Sludge

Ability: Rain Dish
EVs: 252 Hp / 32 Def / 224 SpD
Calm
~Toxic Spikes
~Rapid Spin
~Scald
~Protect
I needed a spinner and someone who could take special hits well. Rain Dish is because of the popularity of rain teams. Protect is for scouting. The other moves are pretty standard. Again, I'm open for replacements.

Nice, so you're doing the suspect test?
I also did the suspect test with a Kyurem-B named " Rape Whistle ".
Needless to say, Choice Band Outrage hurts.
