what sucks is that neither form gets STAB from its signature move, since they're both Dragon/Ice types

I've always liked Reshiram's design better (even though Zekrom had the better typing imo) so I'm going with White Kyurem. It looks MUCH better than its counterpart and its higher Special Attack goes great with Draco Meteor.
BTW, how do you pronounce Kyurem? Is it Kai-u-rem or just Q-Rem? 'Cos I go with the former.

Well... for me, I always judge the two game mascots on a bit of my own criteria, which includes the general appearance, history, movepool and competitive use. If I feel that it looks awkward or just... not cool, I will probably choose the other. If it doesn't have a nice, attention-grabbing hook correlating with the backstory of the game, I'm probably more tempted to get the other. However, if one of the mascots doesn't tie in with the story they both probably don't so I try not to weight heavily on that aspect of it. Movepool is really important to me, though, because if what I'm going to be battling with throughout the game is sucky, I'm not going to bother. Competitive usage is important to me as well, since I try to do Wi-Fi as much as I can, so if its stats are unmanageable I won't bother with it.

Kyurem-W fits all of my criteria perfectly as opposed to Kyurem-B looking estranged and lopsided and having a shallow(er) movepool.

I'll take the more beautiful, less derpy one. I'm taking White Kyurem for this one... I wonder how it'll handle in battles?

Even though I like Reshiram more then Zekrom separately combinedwith Kyurem I'm going to have to say Black Kyurem. Just because Ithink it looks cooler then in its White Kyurem form.

They're both horribly designed, but I'll go with Black Kyurem because its better than White Kyurem.

I would have to say White Kyurem! Because it has a better design in my opinion. Black Kyurem is cool to though I just don't get the black and gray mixed in the design because it looks weird. But I really don't care because they are both awesome pokemon! :D

I'll vote for White Kyurem because pokemon white 2 represents white kyurem, and I have this version.
