Trivia
- BONK! had all of his controllers stolen at Frostbite 2020[1], which has spawned multiple jokes inside the Smash community about giving him a replacement controller.
- BONK! is notably the "overly enthusiastic" voice of many of ProGuides' Smash Ultimate videos[2], which has given him the nickname of "ProGuy".
