The short answer: the Pokemon Reloaded official site file served on this site is scanned and tested before the download button goes live, and it behaves cleanly. The longer answer matters more, because most "is it safe" worry comes from warnings that look scary but are routine.
What the scan covers
Every build passes multiple antivirus engines before publication. It is then installed on three real phones, launched, and played through the opening section while we watch for crashes, freezes, and odd behavior. A single credible detection or an unexplained permission stops the release.
The permissions, explained
The game requests storage access for save data and not much else. There is no account system, so there are no logins to leak, and in testing it shows no aggressive ad behavior or background data use. If a copy you find elsewhere asks for contacts, SMS, or device admin, delete it; that is not this game.
Why the warnings appear anyway
Your browser will warn about the download, and Play Protect may warn during install. Both warnings appear for every APK installed outside the Play Store, including perfectly safe ones. They are Android telling you it cannot vouch for the file, not Android telling you the file is malicious.
The real risk: where you download it
The genuine danger is not this game but repackaged copies. Anyone can inject extra code into an APK and re-upload it to a forum or chat group. Stick to the download page here, where the file matches the scanned build. The install guide walks through the whole process safely.
