If you have a Black Kyurem that knows the charged attack Freeze Shock, you get an adventure effect. Wild Pokémon you meet act as if you always threw a Nanab Berry. They stand still, so they are much easier to hit. This is very useful when you catch tough Pokémon in raids or on community day. Kyurem does not need to be your buddy for the effect to work. It just needs to know the attack.

How to get Freeze Shock

1. Get a Kyurem and 30 Kyurem candy.
2. Get a Zekrom and 30 Kyurem candy.
3. Collect 1000 Volt Fusion Energy for Kyurem, for example through special research or an event. This is the hardest part.
4. Fuse Kyurem with Zekrom to get Black Kyurem. It then automatically knows Freeze Shock as its charged attack.

When you want to use Freeze Shock, it costs 5,000 stardust and 5 candy per 10 minutes, and you can activate it for up to two hours at a time.

White Kyurem and Ice Burn

If you fuse Kyurem with Reshiram instead, you get White Kyurem, which knows Ice Burn instead of Freeze Shock. Ice Burn is its own adventure effect, separate from Freeze Shock. I prefer Freeze Shock and Black Kyurem myself.

Save Rare Candy for Kyurem

Since the fusion needs new candy every time, Kyurem is a good place to spend Rare Candy on, so you always have candy ready to fuse again.

Trust the suggested raid team.

The list may not pick the perfect team, but it gets close enough for most raids. If you are not an expert, do not change it.

Instead, focus on healing between each raid and joining a "party".
