Choice Specs Kyogre is a terrifying wallbreaker in Ubers, as its Water Spout is able to 2HKO Ferrothorn and even Blissey after Stealth Rock. If Kyogre finds itself low on HP, it can make use of Origin Pulse instead. Ice Beam hits Eternatus, Zarude, and Zekrom, while Thunder hits opposing Kyogre and potentially paralyzes switch-ins such as Eternatus and Palkia. Kyogre fits well with partners such as Marshadow and Yveltal, which are able to overwhelm shared checks. Marshadow KOes Blissey and Ferrothorn and weakens a shared check in Eternatus, while Yveltal can take care of Lunala and Blissey, remove Eternatus's item with Knock Off, and act as a pivot for Kyogre. Swords Dance or Thunder Wave Groudon helps Kyogre break through Eternatus and Blissey and benefits from Kyogre threatening Zygarde-C. Necrozma-DM also pairs well, as it helps mitigate Kyogre's middling Speed tier with Thunder Wave. Landorus-T is also appreciated, as it checks Groudon and is able to bring Kyogre in safely with U-turn. In return, Kyogre pressures bulky threats such as Zygarde-C and Buzzwole.
