Actually, I rather like that idea, but don't think it stays true to Pichu's Pokedex description. If Pichu uses too much electricity, he'll short out and faint for a short time. I actually think something better would be factoring in his 'Static' ability from the Pokémon games; there is a chance that when Pichu is attacked, the opponent will suffer from a small electric shock themselves. I'd say this shock would deal about 4% damage.
