Swimming. I am in the water way too much in game and end up doing most of my leveling there too regardless of the region.

Listening to the Gym Leader music, mostly! If not that, then probably just looking for all of the pokemon in a certain area for the pokedex because it's.. a habit. A habit on getting all of the main pokemon for the dex. :]

Currently, I spend most of my time breeding and training Pokemon. But sometimes - since I've beaten the game and have no real goal and since breeding Pokemon can be very time consuming and boring - I just stand in whatever location I'm in at the moment and do nothing (or distract myself with the computer and leave it on for a while). Then I realize that I have nothing I want to do in my game, turn it off, and walk away from it for the rest of the day to sometimes a week. I really want the next game to come out. I even have a team set up and everything.

Most of my time is spent training and breeding for competitive teams~ Which is funny because I don't even do Wi-Fi battles that often. I just do it because it's fun, and it feels so rewarding to finally get that perfect max IV Poke ^^

Swimming. I am in the water way too much in game and end up doing most of my leveling there too regardless of the region.

Haha the water is nice for leveling. It always feels like Pokemon appear a lot more frequently when you're surfing. Plus it's a nice wide open area for wild Pokemon encounters ^^

Yes! The gym leaders always have the best music! Sometimes I just sit and let the gym music play...especially in X & Y haha.

I've done that before. That's just a sign that it's time for a new game haha. GameFreak, make it happen soon please :3

What would you say that you've spent the most time doing in Pokemon games?

Level grinding for sure. I always like to be ready for my next important battle.

Depends the game!
In gen IV, battling with trainers
In gen V, going under water near undella town to the abyssal ruins to get all the statues and stuff lol
In gen VI, in the battle chateau!

Dex filling. The main story of any Pokemon game never takes me more than 15 hours; the other 80+ I invest into the game comes from wandering routes, training, and breeding Pokemon in order to complete the Pokedex and have one of every type of Pokemon sitting in my boxes.

Prior to gen 6 just some random stuff. In X and OR I spend a lot of my time collecting items and Pokedex entries and breeding Pokemon.

Well, I've spent the most time, or listening to Gym battle/Elite Four/ etc themes, or exploring some areas, trying to see what Pokémon exist there, the graphics in that area, etc ... I think that's it xD Oh, and in X, I've spent to much time in the Battle Chateau leveling up my Pokémon >.<

Exploring, just taking walks. That's what I enjoy the most
in games that have a nice world like Pokemon does :)

The first thing that comes to mind is training, definitely! Aside from that, I've also spent a decent amount of time battling online, as well as hatching eggs.

EV training. Sadly, I have been getting urges to train my in-game Pokemon this way since learning about them. (sometimes I even EV train in ROM hacks) My bad habit of being a perfectionist leads me to view them as an "inferior" version of their competitive counterparts. :( Sometimes I end up wishing that I hadn't heard of EVs at all. On the bright side, learning about EVs led me to try out online battling after X and Y were released. Competitive battling helped to eliminate the habit of having four attacking moves in every Pokemon.
