  • *Approximately
    Yellow = 430hrs
    Crystal = 510hrs
    Emerald = 330hrs
    FireRed = 750hrs
    Black = 400hrs
    I didn't like the 4th gen games at all besides SS/HG, but neither of them reached 100hrs.

    My longest playtime is 178:54

    Of course I started playing the game when it came out and am still playing it off and on, I have 15 badges on it and 121 Pokemon owned.

  • I mostly stop playing after the E4, but sometimes I spend a lot of time messing around. Once I clocked around 270 in Crystal.

  • I think the longest playthrough I've had is Leaf Green at about 200h.

    Aside that, Crystal was about 100h, White 2 is 120h, Black is 80h, X is around 80h right now... I've had every Pokemon game, but not sure since it was so long ago lol

    I haven't even beaten Leaf Green yet :X I've caught every Pokemon possible in that version (apart legendaries) and I leveled them all to Level 60 or so. I don't even use 90% of them, but I was OCD at that point lol

  • Easily X and Y with over 300 hours plus, it's the most time I've spent on a Pokemon game. It follows that this generation has been the most enjoyable for me since Generation II.

    999:59 on HeartGold.

    I have over 700 hours on both X and Y. Most of those hours I spent trading.

    That's impressive. My HeartGold would be longer if I didn't reset the game to replay it. I've done three playthroughs of the same cartridge.

  • 300ish hours in Sapphire. Proud! Did so many things from catching funny-looking Spindas to mixing records with my Ruby/a friend for hidden bases that I could battle. Oh, and contests were a huge time sucker too. \(^▽^@)ノ

    X is coming close though, 290 hours on it.

  • Around 510 hours on Pokémon Ruby. Back in the day, me and my friends played literally every day, battling each other.

  • I think ~160 hours on Diamond, ~120 hours on White, and ~80 on Emerald. I have X but I haven't spent THAT much on it, mostly because postgame sucks and breeding bores me.

    I think my highest total is in Diamond, with around 450 hours. I think I spent a lot of time training, completing my Pokedex, trading, etc. I might also have fallen asleep with it on a couple of times, as I'm surprised that the counter is that high.

    As for the fastest rate of adding time to a game, I have about 230 hours on X. I used to play much more frequently before the semester started, but since the beginning of February, I think I've only put on about 30 hours.

    On my pearl version, I racked up over 700 hours and I'm not even sure how! Lol, but it was the first game I began playing competitively.

  • My highest was over 700 hours in my Pokemon Gold version. I was breeding an army of baby pokemon, mostly Magby and Totodile that I wanted to get to level 100. And I was seeing how many times I could beat the Elite 4 before the Hall of Fame thing stopped working. I got up to 212 and then like 3 times after that it said 212 but then switched to 213 on the 4th time after.

  • I'm somewhere in the 700s (maybe even 800s) on Platinum but that's because I also let my siblings use it so it wasn't just me contributing to the play time.
    I'm in the 600s I believe in Black and that was actually mostly me, but I also let my brother play on it a lot as well.

  • About 200 hours on Diamond, and maybe 300 something on Platinum. That was, before I lost both games. I spent a lot of time just exploring and, well, catchin em' all.
