PIXELMON Help, please! DS wants to download it from a v. dodgy-looking site

DS (10) is obsessed with Minecraft, as are all his pals. The latest is that they are all apparently now playing Pixelmon on MC, and so he wants it too. He showed me the site he wanted to download, and straight away I picked up lots of red flags! - (misspellings, poor grammer, dodgy ads which tried to lure me to porno sites, etc - and the McAfee Antivirus then began to send out warnings too ...Thank goodness DS is well enough trained to have checked me first before downloading it.

Please, can anyone direct me to a safe genuine Pixelmon website, or means to download it safely - preferably one you have tried and tested yourself? He has a newish laptop (Windows 8.1) and I'd hate for it to get a nasty virus! Thanks in advance, helpers!

Thanks pixie, that sounds like a good place to start - I'll check that out soon. (Hope the download is simple enough for me to manage...)
