How to use the dataset

This dataset contains over a thousand entries of user conversations related to the Pokémon community posted and commented on Reddit. By using this dataset, you can explore the popularity of Pokémon related topics, the level of user engagement, and how user interactions shape the discussion around each topic.
To do so, you’ll want to focus on columns such as title, score, url, comms_num (number of comments on a post), created (date and time when post was created) and timestamp.
For starters you can start by looking at how many posts have been made about certain topics by using “title” column as a keyword search bar – e.g., ‘Magikarp’ or ‘Team Rocket’ – to see just how many posts have been about them in total. With this data in mind, you could consider what makes popular posts become popular and look at the number of upvotes from users (stored in “score”)– i.e., what posts caught people's attention? Beyond upvotes however is downvotes - can these be taken into account when it comes to gauging popularity? One could also take into consideration user engagement by looking at comms_num as it contains information regarding number of comments left for each post - does an increase in comments lead to an increase in upvotes?
Additionally one could examine how posts were communicated with users by reading into body texts stored under 'body'. Through this information users can create insights into overall discussion per topic: are they conversational or argumentative? Are there underlying regional trends taking place among commenters who place emphasis on different elements regarding their pokemon-related discussions?
This opens up possibilities for further investigations into understanding pokemon-related phenomena through Reddit discussion; finding out what makes certain topics prevalent while others stay obscure; seeing where our World Regions lay within certain conversations; all while understanding specific nuances within conversation trees between commenters!
