    well the digit drastically dropped the value however you do have some rich keywords so base it on that and you should be fine :)

    In my opinion that isn't really a great domain. You want something:

    - Short
    - Memorable
    - Easy to spell

    Placing keywords in URL would help for your site. Make sure that these keywords are relevant to your pages and content. Keyword that will bring huge number of visitors. Make your URL clean and easy to remember. :D

    if your pokemon can feed the world,
    if pokemon can create jobs, hire people, pay decent wages, solve our global economy problems, keep our planet clean and green and people healthy, ...

    then it's a great domain because you may get lots of traffic as a result of glboal usefulness!

    it's NOT only about top SERPS
    what is the value of #1 SERPS if no one needs that product and thus no one or a tiny small number only searches those keywords?
    people need MONEY, = jobs, security, answers, solutions, health, love, happiness, ...
    I am unaware how much pokemon in the current global situation can contribute to what people really need - you are the expert!

    I don't see anything special in this domain. It's too long.

    my "friend"
    its globally called economy crisis
    and thats the result of too many people wasting too many resources in too useless "niche"-markets
    learn usefulness and your success will multiply eternally!

    I think Domain name is very important part of branding any thing.
    Domain Name Should be:-
    1.Short
    2.Easy to search able
    3.Memorable
    4.Easy to communicate

    It don't look like such a great domain name to me :) Can you get pokemon-episodes.com/org/.net ? it may be better choice to go with.

    Most of the good domains are already gone so probably you are wasting your time in finding best keyword rich domain at reg free rates.
