Confusion Move Detail

Confusion is a Psychic-type move with 50 power and 100% accuracy. It has a 10% chance of causing the target to become confused. As one of the earlier Psychic-type moves available in Pokémon games, Confusion is often accessible to a variety of Psychic-type Pokémon at lower levels. This move has been a staple for many players due to its reliable accuracy and the added benefit of potentially confusing the opponent, which can render the target unable to act effectively for a few turns due to the chance of self-inflicted damage.
