Taking the Long Way Home

Caleb is as unremarkable as they come. He stands behind a register every day to pay the bills like anyone else does. He's heard of Pokemon, but only as a passing fad for kids who don't have responsibilities to weigh them down. So when he wakes up stranded on a mountainside in an unfamiliar wilderness that is definitely not his own bed, there couldn't be a more unprepared victim of fate. Yet he must move on and brave the dangerous wilds of the Hoenn region, in a quest to find out why he is here and how he can get back home.
