THIS INTERPRETATION OF HIS DATA IS SUPER MISLEADING! Outright incorrect even! This is EXTREME clickbait. From the published research: "To understand the overall feeling of the tweets, I calculated their sentiments using Google Cloud’s Natural Language API and conclude that while some people were angry, others were full of hope." The sentiment "split" exists because while some people were hopeful in the their Tweets (that Nat Dex Pokemon may return), others were just upset they were removed in the first place. His research only comments on the positive/negative sentiment of tweets that used the BringBackNatDex hashtag, but this should not be confused with whether or not the tweets were for/against the return of the National Dex. Please revise the article accordingly to clear up this misleading ambiguity.
Excerpt from the published article on the "positive" tweets, which, as you can see here, are all pro-#BringBackNationalDex:
On a more positive note, we have hopeful comments such as: “[sic] Im still gonna get it, but [sic] i have great fears my team wont be in the game and [sic] i really [sic] dont like that #BringBackNationalDex,” “It’s amazing to see how passionate the pokemon community is about the games, #BringBackNationalDex is a true example,” and “We follow your game [sic] atleas 10++ years, [sic] pleased don’t betray us, I buy switch just only for.”
And the "negative" tweets, which are also pro-ReturnOfTheNatDex:
Some examples are: “THEY RUINED THE SAGA!”, “Pokemon fans: BOYCOTT NINTENDO AND GAME FREAK,” and “THAT GAME IS SO BRITISH THEY ARENT EVEN LETTING POKEMON FROM OTHER REGIONS IN.”
