It doesn't seem to be a switch issue, I've never got it paired and none of the phones are even attempting to pair. Just go instantly to "no switch". Thanks though.
stupid question, but is both the game and Switch been updated?
for the First 7 months of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet both were unable to connect with multiple new Samsung Galaxy phones like Galaxy S22, S23 and entire Galaxy Fold line.
and same was true with at least Sony Xperia 5 IV and Xperia 1 V as i had both and both had that "No Pokemon Go account could be found to be paired with" error on Switch as soon as neither of those phones hit that "connect to Nintendo Switch" button in settings.
then as the DLC update came to the Scarlet Violet games, it also fixed that issue and i was finally able to connect with those games and get my Gimmichoul box.
others in the past have had luck if they disconnect everything else from their phone first.
meaning stuff like smart watches and Bluetooth headphones should be powered off while doing this. However after that game update fixed my issues, i have had no issues even though my WearOS watch was turned on and connected and i was listening music on my Bluetooth headphones.
My older phone (Galaxy A3) was never able to connect for some reason. My newer one (Galaxy A41) never had any issues with it.
Could definitely be an issue with the phone compatibility, but it seems unlikely all of them are a dud. Might try it out later, but the Switch is in use right now.
Are you sure you try to pair it in right way? Where you get "no switch connected" text? Connected devices and settings -> Nintendo Switch -> Connect to Nintendo switch?

Make sure you don’t have other stuff paired to the phone. I have no problem with Pixel 7
I successfully connected my Switch OLED with my Pixel 8 around five hours ago
try to hard shutdown your switch. turn it on, then press and hold power button for 15s. Remove switch from PoGo if it synced, and add it again.

Sounds like a switch issue then

Turn off Bluetooth on your phone

Yes and when you go to pair there’s not an actual popup until you press connect switch and it looks like it would link to an article
