インフェルノの津波 March 10th, 2011 11:05 PM

3 Days.

I am not kidding, it took that long.

iTeruri March 11th, 2011 3:00 PM

Im currently at 49:21 and I have yet to obtain the 8th badge, so I decide to go for 50+ hours.

lamby101 March 12th, 2011 9:00 AM

It appears I go pretty slow judging by that poll. I've just finished scouting the Pokemon League and I'm just over 40 hours. I honestly think I'll be close to 50 by the time I have a team good enough to win.

Ho-Oh March 21st, 2011 6:31 AM

It took me 94 hours. :) I would've waited longer but I got bored of my pokedex goal.

Eswissy01 March 21st, 2011 8:57 AM

I have 30 hours of game play and have only got to the credits. And found 1 of the 7 sages. I'm trying to beat Cynthia but i need to get to higher levels and decide what I really want for a team.. It will probably take me 50+ hours or so.

Took me a week, but game hours had a total of 25 hours. Game was extremely short. A lot more could've been put into the story. But either way, by far the best story and game so far.

dieter57 March 21st, 2011 9:49 AM

took me a solid week when i got it on the 6th.
gameplay hours were about 41.

lawlercopter March 21st, 2011 10:00 AM

I believe it was just under 30 hours, but I put 30-40 since it was the closest option. This game seemed kind of short.

Keizar March 21st, 2011 3:26 PM

Took just around the 40hour mark for me to clear the routes and beat the E4 and Champion Adler.

Tho i did take my time to enjoy the game, and a lot of time breeding and trading with a lot of people, all the trading have just been really great, so didn't feel like i had to do it any faster.

レイジングブラスト March 21st, 2011 3:34 PM

I beat N at about 28 hours and Cynthia around 51 hours. I've never faced Alder and I've restarted since then anyway.

Eurydice March 21st, 2011 4:42 PM

it took me 62 hours to beat the main story. wow i am really slow

LadyDae March 21st, 2011 5:08 PM

It took me me five days to beat the main game. About twenty-four and a half hours because I remember looking at the time afterward and I was like wow! I spent a whole day playing this in total.

fire woven March 21st, 2011 5:08 PM

Just under a day of game time. Well actually probably closer to 20 hours, since I beat it Saturday, and that is my current time. It was good, and most of that was time spent grinding for the fourth gym and her freaking Emolgas. Then I found the way to bring up event pokemon, and I used a lvl 50 Celebi to own her, until it almost died from not listening to me.

This was beating N/Ghestis BTW. Have yet to do much else, save for getting Kyurem.

Dillon_68 March 21st, 2011 7:32 PM

About 28 hours to beat N at the League. I'm 48 hours now and I have only found 3 sages. Lots of stuff to do post-game.

SinisterEternity March 21st, 2011 10:52 PM

Took me 17 hours and 35 minutes to beat the main story.
And now I am just training my Pokemon beyond level 70. x3

Dawn March 22nd, 2011 6:36 AM

I was probably below 30 hours when I beat the Elite 4 for the first time, (BUT THERE IS NO OPTION FOR 21-29 hours!!! DB) but I was at 33 hours when I beat it the second time, after finding the sages and beating Cynthia. So yeah, going with that.

IMCL85 March 22nd, 2011 6:56 AM

wow u guys r fast, man I'm 10 hours into the game and I'm still just at gym 3. :(

Twilight-kun March 22nd, 2011 7:07 AM

about 10 hours, battling Geechisu now
my team is roughly level 65+

ahh...good times, good times

shuppet88 March 22nd, 2011 8:55 AM

Sadly I played really fast...didn't even mean to! I just stayed up every night til 4 am since March 6th playing. Yes I have no life and I'm fine with that. I am just annoyed at myself for beating the main story in about a week, and clocking a lot of hours cuz I went through and talked to everyone and even did some musicals for fun. Boyfriend is now preparing for first E4, and he doesn't have as many hours as I did at that point but is higher leveled than I was lol. I used to many max repels?

PiPVoda March 22nd, 2011 10:12 AM

Well I haven't even beat the main story yet. 6 badges and play time is at 45:02..

Giraffe March 22nd, 2011 10:23 AM

I've been playing for 45+ hours, & I'm just battling the first of the Elite 4. x33

I've made sure I got the most out of the game, though -- Plus I've spent around half of my playing time on the GTS Negotiations.

King Gumball March 26th, 2011 9:06 PM

My playthrough was intentionally very slow, trying to absorb absolutely everything the game has to offer. I just finished the main story at 44 hours 33min

Latios Master March 26th, 2011 9:14 PM

It took me 2 and a half weeks, around 90 hours. I got it on the 6th and beat it this past Wednesday.

BringYourOwnKites March 26th, 2011 9:27 PM

It took me about 25 hours... then again it really only took me around 21 since I have the tendency to leave my DS on even when I'm not playing it.

Gary_MotherTucking_Oak March 26th, 2011 9:30 PM

40hrs. I had to train my under-leveled Pokemon quite a bit.
