Wolf's mostly right about Honing for Life with IG. With all but 1 bug and particular play style, Honing for Attack or Defense is better. With the bugs that have Fast Charge and utilizing it in battle with Life, you can heal for a very large amount, from a range and relatively quickly(unless fighting something that jumps around a lot). The Charge attack has an MV of 80. But other than that, Attack>Defense>Life, when it comes to IG.
