There are many note taking apps. I recommend Microsoft OneNote because it's available on all platforms.
If you mean sketching ideas with drawing apps, you can actually just use any drawing apps.
Whether you can work solely off the iPad Pro depends on what you do. File management is horrendous on iPadOS. If you want to get an iPad Pro, you can use that as your main "computer" but your old laptop will always come in handy.
I use the iPad only for drawing. I do everything else on my computer, e.g. editing videos, scanning, edit photos, graphic design, blogging, posting to social media.
