Are there any power banks that output enough to charge it while playing? I have some PD power banks but when I connect them it says they charge too slow.

I use a 20W power bank and it just about prevents the drastic battery drain. A 30W one should be good for most games I reckon

A 30w will suffice but to ensure charging under all circumstances regardless of load, 45w is the benchmark. For context, the charger that is included out of the box is 45w.

Yeap you’re right. 45w power banks are heavy though
