Is pkproject.net legit or a scam?
Unofficial Pokémon fan site offering news and episode streams on a 205-day-old domain flagged by one AV engine and independent review aggregator.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site presents itself as a fan-run Pokémon information hub with news, card data, and episode links, complete with a clear disclaimer of no official Nintendo affiliation. The strongest negative signal is the domain being only 205 days old combined with independent review aggregator reports citing hidden WHOIS details and unusually high traffic for its age. One antivirus engine (Bfore.Ai PreCrime) flagged it as malicious while all browser blocklists remained clean and the hosting IP shows zero abuse reports. Gridinsoft gave it a 72/100 trust score with no malware or phishing detected, creating mixed but overall cautious signals. No business registration or contact details exist, which is common for small fan projects but adds to the uncertainty.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about this site, answered from the scan data on this page. These are auto-generated — not hand-written — so they always match the underlying report.
- Our automated security review flags pkproject.net as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.
- No — pkproject.net scored 25/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.
- Yes. pkproject.net presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 61 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
- pkproject.net is 6 months old, registered on 11/4/2025 through Cloudflare, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

- No. pkproject.net is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
