What is the base power of confusion?

Question

I realize confusion is based on attack, but when the opponent hits himself, what is the base power of its hit.

Answer 1

40 Base Power.

This cannot be altered by STAB (the damage is typeless) or abilities like Technician.

ugh.
I looked it up AFTER I answered, and now I know it's wrong. But if I edit, it'll be like copying you.

Meh. We all all make mistakes. Don't feel that bad about it. :D

---

Mm. Thanks. I'll just hide it.

---

I taught it was 50 base power

---

Nope. Double checked on Bulbapedia.

You should add that Confusion is influenced by Attack stat raises and drops.

---

I already mentioned that in my question

---

No, you said it's based on the stat. Never did you say Stat raises or drops.

I guess...but its still a bit useful
