1st Gen how many days did you take you? R/B/Y

Well the first game I has was Yellow, and I played through it...In a 2 week on holiday I'd beaten the Elite 4 and had a level 94 Pikachu. You have to understand most of my team were in the 70's. But I'd get up, Play Pokemon. Go to the beach till 5/6. Come home, shower, play Pokemon for 3 hours or so. Go out for tea. Play Pokemon at tea. Leave. Play Pokemon in bed. Sleep. AND REPEAT xD
 
I don't really remember how long it took me to beat Red for the first time, but it must have been weeks, not days. I was allowed to play 30 minutes per day back then, and while I did play some more sometimes, I still doubt beating the game was a fast process.
Today I can beat the game in just a day if I want to, although it mostly takes me 2 or 3, even with the +speed button.
 
R/B/Y

Well, it depends. If you want to fully enjoy the game and complete by receiving every item then play through it slow which usually takes me two to three weeks. Although, when I first get Pokémon games; I speed through them. Then I usually restart or something.

R/B/Y Slow: Takes about two to three weeks.

R/B/Y Fast: Takes me usually one week or less to complete the game.
 
I beat those games in almost a day, and I did not play for straight hours, I did rest from time to time. It was actually pretty fast to complete, compared to the games in this generation.
 
I recently did a solo run using only blastoise (and a few carefully selected TMs/HMs), and finished in less than a day not constantly playing.
 
Usually about 10 hours using my favorites, also catching the Birds.
 
By now I know the game by hearth, so no more than two hours! It's really easy game to play...
 
It always takes me at least a day. I like to train a lot.
 
I have 236 hours on my silver in process of catching them all and getting a team of lvl 100's, had a lot of car rides when i was little.
 
When I was going to New York I played Pokemon Yellow non-stop. =3 I completed it on the way back home. xD So 1 day I guess.
 
My first Pokémon game was Red, and the anticipation killed me, so I managed to beat the game in a day and a half. I had some help from my neighbor who finished Pokémon Blue and Red before me. After Red, I beat Blue, which took me a little more time than Red, and Yellow, which I practically stayed playing it for months before the release of the GSC versions.
 
I think it took me around 8-11 hours to beat the Elite 4? That's kinda loitering around and catching a few Pokemon/raising them. I think if I tried speed-running Red Version though, like just focusing on only getting through Indigo Plat. I could do it in maybe 6 hours?
 
To beat the E4? Probably less than a week.

To 'properly' complete the game (E4 beaten, full Pokédex etc) the first time took me months, then the save got wiped and I had to start all over again lawl. I did it again recently however and it took a few weeks.
 
When i first obtained blue, i literally played it 70%+ of my conscious daytime. I wasn't playing it just to finish it though, i literally talked to every single person, tried to obtain every item, grinded a lot , had a lot of link battles and trades. I'd say it took 3 weeks or so to beat the elite four.

When i playback these days it will take me a few days or so. :)

Nothing is ever as fun as the first breakthrough though.
 
If I want to take my time and raise my team equally then you could count on me taking 2-3 months on it, but on some of my challenges where I've taken on Seafoam and Power Plant for grinding, and even took on Mewtwo for fun, I can have it done in about a day, or if I use VBA's speed function, then about 2-4 hours.
 
i can smash out this game in about 12 game time hrs tbh
