One of Smosh’s earliest videos, “Pokémon Theme Music Video,” was released on November 28, 2005.

However, the video instantly became much more popular than any of their other videos; over the course of its lifetime, it gained over 24 million views, becoming the most-viewed video on all of YouTube at that time.
