I'm not sure...
I think it might've been around 45-50 hours? I don't remember, but It was around that time.

I'm not sure how many hours it took for me to finish Pearl, but I know that it was about a week or less. (not a week of gameplay, but intervals of playing during that week)

Having the time on my hands most of these days, it took me about four or five days to complete it. I probably could try to complete it in a shorter time as a goal, but I don't play my game that often. During those 4-5 days my Pokémon still reach the high levels I expect them to be for the Elite Four and I don't like to rush through the game as I like to enjoy the storyline I go through, which I did. I think this a fair amount of time to complete DPPt for me though, so I'm good. d("d)

I was really enthusiastic when I started playing Pearl. But as enthusiastic as I was, I think I beat the E4 in 50+ hours. I played for a week and a half; around 3-5 hours a day, since I rarely have enough time to play more. So, that's a mere approximation.

I'd say about 2-3 weeks. The E4 was the hardest part.

Some of these answers are surprising to a noob like me. I havent beaten Diamond but i have beaten Red, Yellow, LeafGreen, and Heartgold and none of them took me less than 42 hours. Seeing people beat it in the teens and twenties... Dang. I only have 2 badges and Im already 10 hours in.

I'm going to use my second playthrough because I don't like the first, my friend took it, Action Replayed it, and next thing I knew I had a lot of level 100s. At the time, I had no clue what was going on. My TRUE playthrough (2nd) took me, I'm not sure, but I believe 20-25 hours to beat.

It took me 25 hours to get my starter, grind, then beat Red.

There's an extra 6 hours on there catching Pokemon, most of it is made by legendaries.

For me it was about 40-45. I got the game in the summer vacation, so I had a lot of time to play it!
