Question

How long does X/Y take to complete?

Comments

Is this question allowed? The answer could vary a lot.

---

lol it could take from 10 hours to 50 hours, depending on how you play the game.

---

It took me a week.

---

Like if you tried to speedrun, cuz my friend and i realized we could get all the legendary birds and mwwtwos by completing the game, trading, then restart with new starters

---

Apparently several people did it in 4 hours without trading. https://www.speedrun.com/pkmnxy

---

It must be allowed saying that the user has 30 points so it would have been checked

---

You can pass it if u have +25 points.

---

Im am 90% sure it's 80 anybody want to help?

It isn't Outdated. Ask Fizz or any expert like Hellfire Taco and sumwun

That thread is up to date. The requirement is in fact 25 and has been for years. You’re seeing the banner because you’re posting on old questions, for which the limit is 100.
As for this question, I don’t see what’s wrong with ‘it varies’ as an answer. I think this is okay.

Answer 1

To answer your question "How long does X/Y take to complete" According to https://www.speedrun.com/pkmnxy the fastest finishing time for X/Y is 3 hours & 42 minutes(Technically making this the answer). Astounding really but do keep in mind this is speedrunning so therefore it was most likely done under best possible circumstances. Through the numerous times I have played though (see my profile for more details) I usally average any where from 50 to 65 hours at a pretty leisurely pace. Although I do know some people who see a 20 hour play through as a normal time, so it really relies on your play style do you pick Pokemon who's evolutionary forms will hold up? do you yeild for type matchups? do you play in the morning and forget to close before going to the bus adding 7 hours??? It's really how you play and how the game fits into your everyday life as a recreational activity. Hope this helped!
