It took me almost exactly a month to beat the game in Japanese. @[email protected] I'm going a fair bit faster this time, haha. I'm heading up to gym 7 and I've only had the game since Sunday afternoon. :p

...and that's fast for me. u_u;

As of right now I'm on the verge of the 57 hour mark and I'm at the very start of Victory Road.
I wanted to take it slow and while that kinda worked, it's still only a week tomorrow since it arrived.

SilverCrown March 10th, 2011 11:57 AM

Took me about 16 hours to finish the main storyline. Played for 35ish hours now. :)

Dillon_68 March 10th, 2011 12:25 PM

13 hours and Im about to enter Clay's Gym. Pretty nice pacing.

Beechlgz March 10th, 2011 12:32 PM

Typically it takes me about 5 or 6 months to play through a game because I seriously like to take my time. But... I've just gotten gym badge number 7 and it's only been about 5 days. Which is record speed for me. I think I'll probably be done before the week is over, maybe just a little bit after.

I'm in the same boat. My game time stands at around 17, 18 hours at the most.

I just beat the first gym. I still gotta while, and I play through the games slowly and take time to train and get good natures + IVs. Gonna make this game last as long as I can.

Palkia March 10th, 2011 12:52 PM

I'm onto my 35th hour and am at Route 13. Mind that my team is 10 levels under all the other trainers mind.

Tree_x March 10th, 2011 1:00 PM

6hrs in 3rd Badge at this rate it is gonna be awhile but i am not in any rush Global link wont be up till then end of the month and i always find myself wanting to do the story after it is done anyways no need to rush through it

Katja March 10th, 2011 1:33 PM

I've been taking my time with the game and been too busy. Haven't even gotten to the second badge really...

harig07 March 10th, 2011 1:46 PM

It took me around 18 hours over the course of 3 days to beat Ghetsis and all that stuff, only just beat the Elite Four properly though (36 hours over 6 days). Spent most of it trying to get my Deino to evolve -_-

Cleared the entire thing in like 2 days on my Japanese version though, have no idea why that is but whatever.

Porygon Z March 10th, 2011 1:47 PM

It took me like 21 hours to beat it, 30 to beat Alder also.
But I think I could handle it in 14-15 hours, I've just trained the team a lot.

El Diabeetus March 10th, 2011 2:52 PM

I told myself I was going to take my time, didn't happen. I got the game on the 7th, beat Ghetsis on the morning of the 9th. I only had about 14 hours of gameplay then. Now, I'm about up to 18 hours of gameplay and have caught all the legendaries minus Tornadus and Landorus, and he event legendaries (Keldeo, etc.)

Jay H Christ March 10th, 2011 3:04 PM

I tend to take my time and catch every Pokemon from each area. So it usually takes me quite a white but so far I've only played 26 hours and I'm only at the 4th gym. lol.

Weber March 10th, 2011 3:15 PM

im at 35 hours now, i have been catching all the pokemon so far, but and my pokemon are WAAAAAAAAAAY underleveled.

sshadow March 10th, 2011 3:25 PM

I'm taking it slow this time. I really want to enjoy this game and I am really working on my pokemon.
I improted pokemon White from japan and went through it really fast(one reason is my japanese is only so-so).
But 5 hours in and just about to beat the 2nd gym.

Kevin March 10th, 2011 3:37 PM

It took me about... roughly two days to complete the main storyline.

Griffinbane March 10th, 2011 4:01 PM

24 hours and a couple of minutes. >_____>

Razer302 March 10th, 2011 4:34 PM

Got it on the 6th and still haven't completed it. Due to work all the time. But my little brother completed it on the first day. Now its collecting dust as he isn't into competitive battling like me.

MarioManH March 10th, 2011 5:12 PM

Got it on 6th, started on the morning of the 7th, finished on the night of the 8th.

CptSwaggerPants March 10th, 2011 7:09 PM

1 day, and it took that long because I was sick. I wanted to hurry and beat the story so I could explore and have fun training my favorite Pokemon (:

Zelda March 10th, 2011 7:29 PM

Since these two threads share a similar topic I've merged them together.

As for myself, I've been playing for around 22 hours from the day of the US release and I'm still playing at the moment.

Dark knight17 March 10th, 2011 7:42 PM

I beat it in just less of two days, I was playing it from the moment I woke up till the time I went to sleep. And a few hours ago I challenged the elite four again and won!

Christopher March 10th, 2011 8:27 PM

I just beat the main story at 20 hours and I must say it's a great game and that I hate this thing http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/635.png

katmanic March 10th, 2011 10:51 PM

I got to the credits just after 22 hours... then had a party with the Poké Tranfer Lab. <3
