In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet there are 3 main stories to complete. These are Victory Road, where you take on the Gym Leaders and take the Champions Test; Starfall Street, where you infiltrate the 5 Team Star Bases and take down all of the grunts and bosses; and Path of Legends, where you are tasked with taking down the 5 Titan Pokemon of the Paldea Region to obtain the Herba Mystica that they guard. It will take players an estimated 30 to 40 hours to clear all 3 story modes.
Three Stories: From Gyms to Gems

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will take players roughly 20 to 30 hours of play time to complete the Victory Road story mode. Your play time depends on how long it will take you to get all the Gym Badges and pass the final test to become the Champion.
Victory Road Complete Guide

Starfall Street has you infiltrating Team Star Bases and taking down the grunts' many Pokemon using the new Let's Go auto battler feature. You will then have to take down the Boss of that base. It will take players roughly 10 to 15 hours of play time to take down all 5 Team Star Bases and clear Starfall Street.
Starfall Street Complete Guide

It is generally expected to take players 10 to 15 hours to complete the Path of Legends. This includes taking down all 5 Titan Pokemon and claiming the Herba Mystica that they guard.
Path of Legends Complete Guide

In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, completing the Pokedex and catching all 400 Pokemon may take you 50 to 70 hours.
This includes trading to get version exclusives and Starter Pokemon, as well as getting eggs through the picnic feature for certain pre-evolutions. There are also some Pokemon with more difficult evolution requirements which can be quite tedious. As the games are open world however, with all of the Pokemon appearing in the overworld, its never been easier to catch them all!
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Full Pokedex
You can reduce the time spent completing your Pokedex if you have access to Pokemon HOME. In a future update, Pokemon HOME is set to be connected to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, at which point players will be able to import Pokemon from their previous games provided that they are in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Pokedex.

Even after becoming Champion Rank, finishing all 3 of the Main Stories, and saving the Paldea Region of what lurks in the mysterious Area Zero, your journey in the Paldea Region does not end there. If you are a completionist and want to 100% the game, it might take you more than 100 hours to do so.
Participating in the Academy Ace Tournament for amazing rewards, completing your Pokedex, making every possible sandwich, looking for the highly sought-after Shiny Pokemon, fighting every trainer in the game, and getting all available items. These are just a few things you can do to extend your playthrough.
There is no one rule that fits all when it comes to what constitutes 100% completion. You can decide for yourself what a 100% run is.
