Virus detected while downloading the app from the official website.

Hello,

I accesed the website https://tcg.pokemon.com/en-us/tcgl/ to download the game. After downloading the installer for Windows, I scanned it with virus total.

It says that: 1 security vendor and no sandboxes flagged this file as malicious, and that: Zillya program found Adware.AdSearch.Win32.126

In addition, at the Behavior section it states that: Matches rule LatentBot malware by Ariel Millahuel at SOC Prime Threat Detection Marketplace Malware Bytes describes LatentBot as a multi-modular Trojan written in Delphi and known to have been around since 2013.

With these considerations in mind, is there any remedy of this? I would not want to play anymore knowing I would put my computer at risk.
