Heatran is as strong as Heatran and beats Garde

By 'strong' do you mean viable or has similar stats?

I'm unsure whether or not you're talking about Mega Gardevoir or normal Gardevoir. I'll assume the former.

Steel-types: though it often carries Will-O-Wisp and Focus Blast, a lot of good Steel-types can counter it should they switch in freely, like Mega Scizor, Mega Metagross, etc.
Faster Poison-types: while Psyshock easily OHKOes the lot of them, faster Poison-type Pokemon like Mega Beedrill & Gengar force it out easily and can inflict massive damage on the switch-in. Mega Beedrill, in particular, can collect momentum with U-turn upon a forced switch.
Faster physical attackers: as its Physical Defense is so low, many faster physical attackers can easily bring it down. Mega Gardevoir variants lacking Will-O-Wisp are countered by bulkier, slower attackers, too, that can take a hit from it.

Hope I helped!
