I currently use the smoky Nyko Dock Case, and I like it because it gives a plastic shell on the console without making it bulky. It is advertised to be so thin in docks in the case, and I remember it did decently. Plus, for $10 on Amazon it's a hard value to beat: https://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Dockable-Thin-Case-compatible-Nintendo/dp/B077ZKVRTR/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1524341625&sr=8-1&keywords=nyko+switch+case
Do you know if the case would fit the switch with something like this?
Normally speaking, I stay out of pricing on NMs, but that's not a Switch Pro controller.
Amazon links and prices for everything brand new:

Hori Screen Protector - new $3.26 / used why buy a used screen protector
So yeah, that's about everything

1.) For scratch & bump protection I have the Nyko Thin Case on my Switch (available in different colors):
https://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Thin-Case-Dockable-Protective-Protector/dp/B072KHS2Q5/
https://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Thin-Case-Dockable-Protective-Protector/dp/B077ZKVRTR/
It's a thin plastic case around almost all of your Switch to protect it from scratches & bumps, and comes with a tempered glass screen protector. It's also dockable, and thin enough to fit in many carrying cases.
​
If you want a Switch case that matches your Pikachu/Eevee theme, they have some available now:

​
2.) For everyday travel protection, you can get a zippered carrying case. Since I love "slim", but didn't want to sacrifice protection, I bought the TomToc Slim Hard Case (available in different colors):

https://www.amazon.com/Compatible-Nintendo-Original-Hardshell-Cartridges-Accessory/dp/B07C3Z8FFC/
When the Switch first came out, there weren't that many choices for "slim" hard cases, but now I see there are several similar-styled cases that also look pretty durable.
​
And again, if you want an everyday carrying case that is Pokemon-themed, they have some available now too:
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Pikachu-Officially-Licensed-Pokemon/dp/B07HBMKFVY/
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Pikachu-Officially-Licensed-Pokemon/dp/B07HBMZRJT/

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Deluxe-Pikachu-Element-500-093/dp/B07GX89VWN/
... just google for more.

3.) If you travel long-distances or on lengthy trips, you may want to get a larger zippered hard case to fit your chargers, battery packs, extra joy-cons and/or pro controllers, HDMI dock, tons of games, etc. I don't have any one in particular to recommend, but in searching ebay it seems like there are hundreds of different cases available now (though not all of them look good).
