Pinks can post (file) whatever they choose to if they sign up for Pink OTC Disclosure and News Service. I don't see why they couldn't call a filing there an 8k although that might be confusing so maybe best to just call it Notification of Material Event or something like that.
Pink OTC's are not required to, some do, most don't.

Form 8-K
In addition to filing annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, public companies must report certain material corporate events on a more current basis. Form 8-K is the “current report” companies must file with the SEC to announce major events that shareholders should know about.
The instructions for Form 8-K describe the types of events that trigger a public company's obligation to file a current report, including any of the following:
Section 1 -- Registrant's Business and Operations
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership
Section 2 -- Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
Item 2.06 Material Impairments
Section 3 -- Securities and Trading Markets
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders
Section 4 -- Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements

Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant's Employee Benefit Plans
Item 5.05 Amendment to Registrant's Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics
Item 5.06 Change in Shell Company Status
Section 6 -- Asset-Backed Securities
Item 6.01 ABS Informational and Computational Materials
Item 6.02 Change of Servicer or Trustee
Item 6.03 Change in Credit Enhancement or Other External Support
Item 6.04 Failure to Make a Required Distribution
Item 6.05 Securities Act Updating Disclosure
Section 7 -- Regulation FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
Section 8 -- Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events (The registrant can use this Item to report events that are not specifically called for by Form 8-K, that the registrant considers to be of importance to security holders.)
Section 9 -- Financial Statements and Exhibits
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits
Companies have four business days to file a Form 8-K for the events specified in the items in Sections 1-6 and 9 above. However, if the issuer is furnishing a Form 8-K solely to satisfy its obligations under Regulation FD, then the due date might be earlier. (Issuers with questions concerning compliance with Regulation FD should consult with counsel or the SEC’s Division of Corporation Finance.)
You can find a company’s Form 8-K filings on the SEC’s EDGAR database. We have posted information on our website on how to use the EDGAR database. For more information, you may wish to read answers to Frequently Asked Questions about the implementation and interpretation of the Form 8-K items, produced by the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance.
