I think on the very first episode, when Pikachu was struck by lightning, you know how it drastically superpowered Pikachu's Thundershock attack? Well, it's possible that it was a permanent boost.

Not to mention Pikachu is zapped by many powerful legendary pokes too like Zapdos, Zekrom and Thundurus too. Nah that feels a bit strange
