COMMENTS
Since twin prime pairs greater than (3,5) occur as either (5,7) mod 12 or (11,1) mod 12, all sums of such twin primes are always divisible by 12. Thus all powers are divisible by 12. The first few terms in base 12 are: 15, 17, 5E, 61, 8E, 91, 615, 617, 7EE, 801, 15EE, 1601 and the corresponding powers are 30, 100, 160, 1030, 1400, 3000.

FORMULA
If a(n) is the above sequence of twin primes, then a(2n-1),a(2n) is a twin prime pair and a(2n-1)+a(2n) is a power.
a(2*n-1) = A270231(n), a(2*n) = A270231(n) + 2. - Amiram Eldar, Jan 05 2020
EXAMPLE
a(5) + a(6) = 71 + 73 = 144 = 12^2.
