Bonus: favorite Black Kyurem and White Kyurem arts (as they are quite different from regular Kyurem):

Also a random side note but it’s weird Landorus isn’t after Tornadus and Thundurus in the PokeDex! I never thought about that before.

Mandibuzz: Fates Collide 58/124
Heatmor: BREAKpoint 15/122
Durant: Dragons Exalted 83/124 (with Rebel Clash 132/192 as close second)
Deino: Darkness Ablaze 108/189
Zweilous: Japanese 086/XY-P Promo
Hydreigon: Darkness Ablaze 110/189 (with Crimson Invasion 62/111 as close second)
Larvesta: Darkness Ablaze 029/189 (with Japanese Matchless Fighters 009/070 and Dark Explorers 21/108 as close second/third)
Volcarona: Ancient Origins 18/98
Steam Siege 74/114 (a simple yet elegant artwork for this Pokémon)
Terrakion: Unified Minds 122/236
Virizion: BW70 Promo
Tornadus Incarnate Forme: Japanese Silver Lance 079/070
Tornadus Therian Forme: Plasma Freeze 114/116 (there are only two artworks available for Therian)
Thundurus Incarnate Forme: Furious Fists 33/111
Thundurus Therian Forme: Plasma Freeze 110/116 (with Plasma Freeze 38/116 as close second - there are only three artworks available for Therian)
Reshiram: Black & White 113/114 (the picture really doesn’t do this card justice; this has always been one of my favorite cards in general, and it’s beautiful in person. The Legendary Collection RC22/RC25 and Roaring Skies 53/106 are a close second and third, and Reshiram has a lot of other amazing artworks)
Zekrom: Dragon Majesty 46/70 (again a pretty hard pick with a lot of good artworks. The BW24 Promo is very nice as well, and as a Pikachu and FA Supporter collector of course a shout out for the Pikachu & Zekrom GX SM168 Promo and Cosmic Eclipse 157/236 artworks)
Landorus Incarnate Forme: Unbroken Bonds 103/214
Landorus Therian Forme: BW79 Promo (again with just three artworks available in this form)
Kyurem: SM142 Promo
Black Kyurem: Cosmic Eclipse 61/236
White Kyurem: XY81 Promo
Keldeo Ordinary Form: XY118 Promo
Keldeo Resolute Form: Boundaries Crossed 142/149 (I’m usually not a big fan of 5ban, but the colors in this artwork as well as the pose of the Pokémon are pretty solid)

They probably did that because of their lore. Tornadus and Thundurus are usually fighting each other, destroying things and hurting people and other Pokémon in the process with their tornados and lightning storms. And Landorus can stop them fighting, and is usually (and I quote from Bulbapedia): “… being referred to by the grateful people as ‘Great Landorus’”.
