Thinking about playing for the first time, how is the Switch experience?

Hey guys! I have been following this game since before Early Access, and then kinda forgot about it for a couple years. I see that a recent update has introduced a lot of improvements to the game, and it is currently on sale for about $18 USD on Switch. I want to be able to play it portably in bed rather than sit at my desk. Is the Switch version of the game acceptable now or is it not worth unless I play on PC? I mainly play Pokemon to collect shinies and raise my team, so I'm not too worried about playing with others. But I'd also like to know if the switch community is nonexistent. Thank you!
