Inspiration
Pokemon holds a very special place in my heart as it is probably the only video game I have judiciously followed for more than 10 years. With this dataset, I wanted to be able to answer the following questions:
- Is it possible to build a classifier to identify legendary Pokemon?
- How does height and weight of a Pokemon correlate with its various base stats?
- What factors influence the Experience Growth and Egg Steps? Are these quantities correlated?
- Which type is the strongest overall? Which is the weakest?
- Which type is the most likely to be a legendary Pokemon?
- Can you build a Pokemon dream team? A team of 6 Pokemon that inflicts the most damage while remaining relatively impervious to any other team of 6 Pokemon.
