at about 30h. Tried to play the game slowly but ended up getting to the rocket hideout. I might take some time off from the "story" and breed/train pokemon.

I have had the game since Thursday, but I only put about 11 hours into it, and I have 3 badges. Like I said before, I'm taking this game slow and talking to everyone this time.

It took me around 44 hours to get through all 16 badges. This is including soft-resetting for a Latias and spending many hours on Voltorb Flip. I was still underleveled for pretty much every Gym battle. :/

24 hours and I'm done with everything except Red and the post-Red legendaries and starters. It doesn't take the same time Platinum did, does it?

I only have 6 badges, and I'm currently at the rocket hideout in Mohagany Town. I've been playing for almost 44 hours. Most of the time I'm training pkmn, but I didn't really play that much yesterday.

Lol I feel slow reading how some ppl got all 16 badges in 10-20 hours. But hey you know what they say, slow and steady wins the race. I might rush through HG when I buy it though.

26 hours when I got 16 badges, and became 30 when I defeated Red. I did some serious grinding. All my Pokemon were level 65-70 before the battle. Before I grinded, probably level 60. :)

Well all you guys going so fast makes me feel like I really have no life. I've been playing it at least three hours a day since March 14th, and today I am clocking in at 81 hours, 18 minutes. So an average of 7.4 hours a day. I feel so lame right now :/ Where has my life gone to?! I dream about pokemon, and hear the music when the game is off. Creepy huh?

What did I do all this time in the game? Well I don't really know how to answer that, except that I just beat the Elite Four last night for the first time. :/

So I guess I am going by very slow...how did people train their pokemon so fast?

I only just got it today, before it even came out here in the UK. =P But it usually takes me about 3 or so days to complete a Pokemon game. Though since I havnt played in Johto before, it could take me longer. =)

Omg I don't feel so bad about taking 45 hours to beat the Elite 4 now. Wow, you're crazy. (In a good way... I think. XD)

Haha, anyway, yeah, my clock said about 45 hours when I finished up with Johto. I'm at about 53 hours and I have 3 Kanto badges (but have explored every city except for Cinnabar). I dunno how long it'll take me to beat Red, though. XD;

That's what happened to me. I had never played in Johto, so it was all really new to me. I'm the biggest slowpoke here! Except I'm not pink and psychic.

It took me a week to finish the game, even though I beat Lance on the first day. I'd estimate it took 17 hours for me.
