Everyone is always having a laugh about Twink, but I never see anyone talk about Rawk Hawk. I don't think anyone at Nintendo ever even said that one aloud. It's the kind of think you would bait a streamer into saying.

The one and only fire-breathing bear.

When I was a youth reading 8-bit theatre, there was a column where the Red Mage character would teach you tips and tricks for D&D, or as he put it, how to "Twink out your character." Not knowing any better, I assumed for several years that that was a normal & accepted term.
I mean it is/was a term used to refer to low level characters that are overpowered in some way. It's probably fallen out of use in that context, I haven't heard it in a while. But people would refer to twink accounts in games that were new characters being played by veteran players, or new character that were given advanced gear somehow.
I guess on the notion of a twink being a person who looks younger than they actually are, I dunno.
Oh, is it actually a thing? I didn't much deeper into it after my brother made fun of me for using it that way
Sure, but ...
I must be entirely unfamiliar with whatever it references and makes it funny.
Oh man, I feel sympathy for the localizers, I also didn't catch that one.
Read your work out loud, people!
