I'm at 58 hours now and still haven't beaten all the Kanto gyms or Red. This is about normal for me though. I think I had 200 plus hours on Pearl when I owned it.

4 hours and 33 minutes to defeat Jhoto League.

Then 1 hour and 42 minutes more to defeat Red.

'The End' at 6:15.

I do this speed challenge in every game basically. :3

Other than the English video game test sites :) and all those people who got the ROMs from Torrent when it leaked about five or seven days before the release day.

I'm at 64h and I'm currently grinding Dratini to Level 55 with the rest of my unevolved team. I'm thinking of finishing around 150h? That'd be enough to grind to 90.

It only took me 25 hours. That's including Kanto and Red. I thought it'd take longer considering it took me 23 hours to beat the Elite Four in Platinum, and that was only one reigon.

I beat the game in 4:03. Took me a few days though because I didn't have much time to play it.


Now I've got 64:08. I beat all the gyms and Red at about 10 something. That's when I was spending all my time redoing my party.

Sweet, which pokemon did you use to get through Jhoto?

I used Typhlosion and Lugia but couldn't get it down to much less then 4:33.

I went through with Feraligatr. Honestly it gets all the coverage it needs pretty early. Had some trouble with the Bellsprout tower, but once I was through there, it was just straight on playing.

26 hours.

... And how in the heck did you beat the game in 4 hours? Don't the dialogue sequences by themselves take longer than that?

It took me around 60-ish hours to get through Johto and Kanto and defeat the Elite Four twice. I still haven't gone through the Elite Four for a third time or defeated Red, yet. I like to make these games last as long as I can.

I first imported it, and that time it took me only a few days of playing it. I wasn't very motivated, so I wasn't playing it nonstop. I think it took ~80 hours? I got bored and sidetracked a lot ._.

I really took it easy, and it took me two months/91 hours to beat the game. I went slowly, and half of Kanto had a type super effective against half of my team. Not to mention that I fought EVERY trainer in the game that is possible. Cept the Gym Leader rematches.
