Nyko makes one but only for one Pro Controller. I don't think a product exists yet to charge two at a time.
Edit: Guess you can Daisy chain them but you need a USB 3.0 connection.

link together 2 of these
I use one of the generic ones off ebay/aliexpress that has two transparent rails in the middle, that light up. Each side holds a pair of joycons or a pro controller, so you can charge 4 joycons or 2 pro controllers, or a mix and match between.
I believe there are some models that can fit joycons to the side of the posts (instead of where the pro controllers sit), which means you can charge 4 joycons and 2 pro controllers at the same time. But my one cant.
But if you only have 4 joycons, if I were you, I would just rotate joycons on charge (on the Switch in the dock), and get a dock for the Pro Controllers. I like the Nyko Charge Blocks, which let you daisy chain multiple blocks together into one solid charging unit. You could do that for two pro controllers, or even got all the joycons as well, if you really want! And you can get them for other consoles too. That's what I would probably do if I had multiple pro controllers (and didn't have far far too many joycons! aha).

Hi,
I am going to buy today a Nintendo switch and I am trying to see what accessories I should buy for it.
This is the list I currently have:
Is there anything else that you would recommend or change from what I posted? From my understanding a cover for the dock is also recommended?
Regarding the memory, I am buying two physical games, however I must likely will be buying more digitally in the future (probably).
One of the things that give me a pause when I was searching for accessories is the Mumba case that I want to buy. I wish for the switch to have a good case just in case, but from I see the case won't allow other accessories while the switch is in it.
And is a grip necessary when in handheld mode?
Thanks for the help.
I use 4 of these Got them on sale a while back. Super awesome since they connect and you only need one power source.
I used the Nyko Charge Block Pro. It creates a dock for the Switch Pro controller using a dongle that uses the USB type C port that is found on the Switch Pro controller. Once you done with gaming you place the Switch Pro Controller on the Charge Block.

Given the reputation Nyko dock have, is this charge dock for the controller safe you think?

I utilize a system from Nyko called Charge Block:

While I don't use it for my Switch stuff(haven't needed to get any yet), I do use it for my DS4 and they are excellent. This is what I recommend with anyone wanting a charging solution. It's great because it's one plug in and then after that it's drop it into the charger and go. No need to get the port just right. Less wear and tear.
It's what I would recommend =) And what I would get myself if I were to get a charger for the Pro Controller or Joy-Cons
