Whenever I switch my Diamond on I do :D I think the last time I cleaned them was August 2009-ish. They've probably eroded by now :D

I would say rarely because it's not in my habit to go see my Trainer Card frequently. So no because of that. But when I do open it, I check my badges and clean them.

I used to, but now I am trying to see and maybe catch 493 pokemon or however many needed for the trainer card star, before hitting 493 hours, and I don't have wi-fi, so I can't waste any time.

Yeah, I'm kind of OCD like that, whenever I get on, the first thing I need to do is clean them, and I mean the very first thing, even if the thing I got on to do is shorter than the actual process of cleaning the badges. It's one of the reasons I rarely play diamond anymore, too time-consuming.

I NEVER cleaned them. I made my brother do the badge cleaning. But, I did all the importamt stuff like training and defeating Trainers.

Am I the only person who never knew you could do this?

Seriously, this is the first time I've ever heard that this is an option in the game. My pearl game has logged over 400 hours and I've never ever cleaned my badges because I had no idea it was possible.

I also had no idea, LOL

I love cleaning them when I have nothing else to do.

But the best part is being able to play music!
