Good Lord, only 55%? I remember it being bad but compared to confuse ray, it's a terrible move (not withstanding it's only a 50% chance to hurt yourself, or 33% in later games).
The move confusion does not cause confusion the overwhelming majority of the time. You would think that confusion would cause confusion, but it doesn't and that makes the move very confusing, hence the name.

my guess: its a pokemon attack that has a 55% chance of confusing the target?

Correct. Supersonic is a 55% accurate move that will confuse the target if it hits.

I was confused by the picture. Thank you for clearing that up.

I think I just hurt myself in my confusion.

I feel like this is more than 55% of people since most people aren't into Pokemon enough to know who that is, or what zir doing.

So you’re in the 55% then. I was too until I read the other comments. I recognized it as Zubat but didn’t know the details of the attack.

No I know enough about Pokemon to know it's Zubat and they used confuse ray..

They're using Supersonic, which has a 55% accuracy rate. They learn Confuse Ray later on, which has a 100% accuracy rate.

I love the mouthy golbat in Pokemon go. Play him just to see that gaping maw! He is all mouth, the design is just awesome.

It feels more like a 20% chance when you’re using it, and a 95% chance when you're trying to get through Mount Moon.

Sound proof

Focus Blast might as well be 30% accurate.
