[+2 TO CALM JOLTIK'S ATK ROLLS DUE TO PRIOR CRITICALS!]
Left with little other choice and a great deal of suspicion about why their foe had retreated while the Calm Joltik continued his unending barrage the other two Joltik would form up beside him, releasing each a String Shot to hold Culann in place!

Speed Lower by 2!
Culan''s Flare Blitz is still Disabled!
((20 + 9)*0.5)/5 = 2.9, round up to 3 damage per round!
It was a bit irritating, to be drenched in sticky fluid as well as to be hit with that missile once more, but Culann didn't have time to think. Though he was slowed by the strings, he had a way to perhaps get his speed back up... eventually. With a growl, he lunged away from Vanni, hoping the spiders wouldn't go after her as he dodged.
While the Joltik's certainly weren't aiming for Vanni, that wouldn't halt a miss aimed String Shot from sticking to her hair. With the dog bogged down by the threads of at least one of his foes however the Joltik's would scatter, leaping and crisscrossing in an attempt to confuse their foe.

Culann's Flare Blitz is still Disabled!
The Growlithe would shake himself, not quite able to free himself of the weighty, sticky strands. (Behind him, his trainer would find herself in a slightly similar situation, as one of the spiders had successfully stuck a string to her confusingly perky cowlick. The thing was a magnet for trouble.) it took a second or two longer than usual to get his flames started, but even the thickest of dank thread couldn't dampen his fire. He fixed his onyx eyes on the Gentle Joltik, pawed the ground, and rushed forward. She had put a stop to his most potent attack; he'd show her what his Flame Charge could do!
The actions of the Growlithe would be accompanied by a series of high clicking sounds produced by a combination of the Joltik snapping their mandibles together, and releasing codded sparks of electricity. Following these sounds a look of concern would cross the Gentle Joltik's face, followed by a nod passing between her companions.
Without warning the Calm Joltik would release a gooey thread, but rather than using it to further trip up their foe he would attach it to the Hardy Joltik. Shifting use weight and using all the strength his tiny body could muster the Electric-Type would whip his comrade forward before the thread was released. Body teaming with electricity the Hardy Joltik flew through the air, spinning threads in rapid succession. Pulling a flawless three-hundred-sixty degree midair turn the Joltik would release a full web behind him before striking the ground. Legs spread out, intense gaze settled on Culann, the message was clear, the Growlithe wasn't touching his friends without going through him first!
The Spider Web in place the Calm Joltik changed position, placing himself several feet behind the web and raising himself at an angle from the back. Hair began rising with the aid of electricity, sharpening to a needled point, before firing off in a steady barrage of Pin Missile. Throughout the Hardy Joltik never moved an inch, even as the projectiles came within millimetres of his own body; such was his trust in his companions.
While these events were occurring the Gentle Joltik, the last female remaining, devised an odd strategy of her own. Pulling out a fan, she tied particularly thin, strong thread forward at Culann. If it made contact the tooth would sink in to his skin, the thread turning orange...she was attempting to use Leech Life at range!

Flames would eash over the Hardy Joltik in an instant, sparks spreading to the web at his back and igniting it fully. Within seconds the insect would be little more than a blackened husk...or so it appeared. Though his fur was singed, his skin burned, a single leg would twitch without curling. The Hardy Joltik had survived, though barely, just as he always survived. The insects earlier Camouflage had protected him against his usual aversion to flame. Still, for him this battle was over. Three down, two to go.
Giving a surprisingly shrill cry the normally Gentle Joltik would begin to panic, launching herself forward only to have the Calm Joltik pull her back with a string. Dragging the Gentle Joltik along the Calm one would retreat, attempting to keep distance between himself and Culann while he formulated a plan!

Culann shook himself off of ash and fur. Over halfway throug this group... and then, whatever next? But this wasn't the time to get ahead of himself; there were two relatively dangerous Joltik to deal with, and he had a job to do. His rough paw pads striking the floor good and hard, he once again used his Flame Charge, this time at the panicking Gentle Joltik.

His rough paw pads striking the floor good and hard, he once again used his Flame Charge, this time at the panicking Gentle Joltik.
Unfortunately the remaining male Joltik's calm analysis of the situation didn't take in to account the fact that there was no longer anyone watching his back, and that the Gentle Joltik was flailing wildly in an attempt to return to the side of their fallen Hardy companion. Evidently that was all that Culann would need, his flaming body slamming in to their foes and evening the odds once and for all. Now the battle was one on one, but with it the Joltik was backed in to a corner; and that was always dangerous!
All the Joltik's hairs raised at once, sharpening in an instant as he ran an electric current through them. Without regard to surroundings or aim, the Joltik would let loose a kamikaze barrage of Pin Missile!

Culann growled, kicking the now-unconscious Joltik's body away from him. Unlike his soft trainer, the Growlithe would have preferred killing his opponents; leave no room for them to come back and attack you again later. Simple and clean. Fire purifies and eradicates. But he could mental debate semantics later. Right now, he had a cornered monster to deal with. Doing his best, he dug his claws into the ground and bolted, attempting to dodge around the Pin Missiles.
Despite his best efforts however Culann wouldn't be able to dodge them all so thick a cloud the Joltik had created. Fortunately however although many of the needles struck, not a single would stick, failing to penetrate his hide time and time again before falling to the floor. For an instant the calmness dissipated from the Joltik's eyes, replaced by raw fear/ When it left however that old calculating mask would return, and the Joltik would make a strategic retreat.

The Growlithe couldn't help a bark surprise as the needles rained down on him. He braced himself for the pain... only to find they bounced off his thick hide. Well, he wasn't one to question a stroke of good fortune! Pulling his lips back in a snarl, he faced the back of his feeling foe. Summoning a burst of energy, he Flame Charged right at the remaining Joltik!
