Naganadel does not have the history that Genesect has, but its ban was far less contested than Genesect’s previous bans were. Naganadel, with Z-moves, was obscene. This generation, it lost the ability to fire off Z-moves, which not only weakens it, but also means it has to deal with the drop in power from electing to use Draco Meteor and potential Life Orb recoil. Even with the changes, Naganadel is still an incredible Pokemon. Beast Boost with its speed tier, alongside Nasty Plot, STABs, and access to Fire-type coverage does all it needs to be incredible. With Naganadel in the tier, you are presented with three options: 1) use SDef Heatran, 2) use Scarf Ditto, or 3) use Pokemon with astronomical special bulk. Without these three things, you’ll find yourself losing to NP Naganadel more often than not. Its STABs coupled with Fire-type moves is just too incredible; it is only walled by Heatran, thanks to Flash Fire. Otherwise, nothing would be able to shrug off its attacks well at all.
In addition, Nagandel is able to snowball out of control upon getting a kill; if the opponent elects to fodder something off to Naganadel or you can muscle past the Pokemon you are facing with Nagandel, then it will get a Speed boost thanks to Beast Boost. This can make it very challenging to revenge kill if you lack strong priority from something like Choice Band Genesect, which you cannot expect every team to have. This dynamic compresses both offensive and balance teams, forcing the usage of specific Pokemon like Heatran more often than not.
Moreover, Naganadel also gained access to Spikes, making it have a niche beyond just the single set that pushed it over the top. Spikes don’t break it, like NP does, but it provides another cool option that can chip all of the aforementioned methods of counterplay. Spikes provides Naganadel with a way to retain momentum, even if there’s a should-be hard wall, such as SDef Heatran or Blissey. Overall, Naganadel has proven itself to be checkable, but only by a very limited pool of Pokemon. Its offensive presence is too much for the Overused metagame to handle because of this.
