I want to use Listplot with Tooltipthat displays Positionof the element I'm hovering over.

data={{0,1},{1,3},{2,2}};
ListPlot[Tooltip[data]]

This is displaying the value of the element. Can I use the Positionfunction in the tooltip?

Map and MapIndexed solutions are formally valid but Thread is often cleaner. (Poor guy is also underused, I believe.)

data = RandomInteger[10, {10, 2}];

ListPlot@Thread@Tooltip[#, Range@Length@#]&@data

data = Sort@RandomInteger[10, {10, 2}];
tts = {Directive[Red, 16, Bold], CellFrame -> 3, CellFrameMargins -> 5};

ListPlot[MapIndexed[Tooltip[#, First@#2, TooltipStyle -> tts] &, data],
         PlotStyle -> PointSize[Large], Frame -> True, AxesOrigin -> {0, 0}]
