Maybe it likes cold food, also it probably doesn't like to eat living humans, so it uses the ice to kill and cut you up to make you easier to eat.
I agree with mw-mw. It probably does freeze you with Ice Bem.
Those legends in B2/W2 were stated to be possibly inaccurate.
Yeah, I also heard somewhere that Kyurem can't even open its mouth. so how could it really eat anything, let alone people?
I wouldve already been dead.
Given that Lacunosa Town is surrounded by a fortified wall and Kyurem is pretty much a zombie, I'm inclined to believe the answer is "yes". I imagine Kyurem instinctively ate people and Pokemon in a desperate attempt to fill the void left by Reshiram and Zekrom, but eventually gave up upon realizing nothing was changing.
Sure, why not?
You can eat dead things. Humans do it all the time.

I mean, when you feel cold, it's you "giving heat" and not your surroundings "giving cold".
That would take Kyurem's powers at another level; while most Ice Pokémon actually "use" cold to attack, Kyurem "is" the cold.
Um, I was talking about normal Kyurem, not its forms. And besides that, I heard what I heard before B2W2 was announced.Quote:

You cite B2W2 (when this was mentioned in BW) even though the old woman who tells you the story in B2W2 admits that the legend passed down may have become inaccurate over time? I don't see how this is really much a topic of debate anymore. Drayden notes that Kyurem's existence has been hidden, so its involvement with the other two dragons is really obscure knowledge, which means anything else said about it could be misconstrued from the truth.The game also blatantly point out the inaccuracies of what the Lacunosa people believed. They didn't even know about Kyurem's relation to Reshiram and Zekrom.Quote:

Just because you can kill something by eating them, doesn't mean you're in the mood to in the first place. Also why do predators kill their prey? To eat them. Why is it at all weird that, even if Kyurem ate humans, that it would try to kill its meal first?
