If the copied creature had {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

If the copied creature was copying something else, then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that creature copied.

If the token is a copy of a creature whose power and toughness are defined by an ability (usually printed as */* or similar), the token doesn't copy the ability that defines its power and toughness. It remains a 1/1 creature.
