Rest assured, Bulbapedia is safe to browse and edit. The erroneous warning seems to be caused by a fault by Google.

I figured as much. Is there any way to fix that? It would be unfortunate for casual users to stumble upon the warning.
I just got a Malware warning from Chrome when trying to visit a page on Hydreigon.

It's a "Google Safe Browsing" thing, not Google Chrome. I'd figure Firefox takes its blacklists from Google's lists among others. (Though to be honest I can't find where does it take these reports from specifically, just that the page links to Google's services)I don't know if someone already pointed this out... but Firefox also says Bulbapedia is an attack site and that red screen appears when I try to access it, so it's probably not a fault by Google Chrome
