Best answer

Retaliate's power will only double if in the previous round one of your Pokemon have fainted.

So, yes. Retaliate's power would double. Base power would be 140.

Hope I helped. :)

Yes, the move retaliate doubles in power if one of your party's Pokemon died the previous round, regardless from what cause. I just did a quick trial with Azelf & Sawk against Heatran and the damage output was double after Azelf used explosion and Sawk used retaliate compared to when Sawk just used retaliate. (20% and 9%, but we aren't factoring damage variation here)
