Most batteries contain chemicals that constantly release energy because of chemical reactions. This energy becomes electrical once a complete circuit is made including the battery. If the circuit is completed, the battery would be destroyed, but a lone battery would not be affected.

Anything conductive will attempt to equalize the electric field generated by the pulse. Since the energy stored in the field is huge, a battery exposed to that field would most likely be damaged.

EMP fries microchips!
You get EMP from lightening, and it can disrupt computer networks, but destroy batteries, it would depend on the power of the EMP and its proximity.
