Is Pokemon - Versione Rosso Fuoco (Italy).zip safe?
No engine among 75 flagged this long-circulating ZIP archive, and three available external-intelligence checks produced no matching threat evidence.
All 75 antivirus engines returned without a malicious or suspicious detection, including 17 tier-1 engines. The archive has circulated since 2016 across 258 sources, and available external-intelligence checks found no match; however, no completed runtime observation or host-reputation check is available.

Before opening or extracting
Open or extract it only when its sender or download source has been independently verified.
If you already opened or extracted it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 antivirus engines returned without a malicious or suspicious detection, including 17 tier-1 engines. The archive has circulated since 2016 across 258 sources, and available external-intelligence checks found no match; however, no completed runtime observation or host-reputation check is available.
The archive received zero malicious and zero suspicious detections from 75 engines. Seventeen tier-1 engines, including BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET, and Microsoft, reported no detection. Its history spans roughly 3,741 days, with 258 unique sources and 275 submissions, which is consistent with an established file rather than a newly distributed payload. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating threat match. Because no sandbox run was completed and contacted-host checking is unavailable, the assessment does not claim that extracted contents or runtime activity were independently verified.
What We Detected
None of the 75 antivirus engines flagged the ZIP archive as malicious or suspicious. The non-detecting set includes 17 tier-1 engines, and no engine supplied a malware-family or hacktool label.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available because behaviour is null. The contacted-host reputation block is also unavailable, so there is no complete network-reputation result to describe. Static intelligence checks through MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify found no matching threat evidence.
What To Do Now
The archive's long history and broad prevalence support routine handling. Keep endpoint protection enabled, scan the extracted contents before opening them, and use the file only if it came from a source you trust.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- behaviour=null, so the archive or its contents were not observed executing in a completed sandbox.
- contactedHosts=null, meaning no complete host-reputation result is available.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 engines reported a malicious or suspicious detection.
- 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection.
- Observed across 258 unique sources and 275 submissions since 2016.
- MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify returned no matching threat evidence.
- No brand mismatch, fired heuristic, or confirmed hacktool label is present.
- No completed sandbox observation is available for the archive or extracted contents.
- No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check is available.
- ZIP archives can contain files whose behavior is not represented by the outer archive's scan result.
Keep endpoint protection enabled and scan the extracted files before opening them. Obtain the archive from a trusted and legally authorized source.
