What you say is true for a 2px prbital, i.e. where the principal quantum number n=2. Let's consider hydrogen. When l=2, as befits a p-orbital, n=2 is the smallest value for the principal quantum number n for which the radial equation has a solution. That means it is the smallest n such that there is a solution with energy -13.6/n^2. Since it is the lowest energy for which the radial equation (with l=1) has a solution, the radial part of the wave function has no node. In contrast, 3p orbitals do have radial nodes, but 3d orbitals don't, for the same reason.

Which orbitals have two nodal planes passing through the nucleus?
The d orbital.An s orbital has one lobe and no nodal plane passing through the nucleus.A p orbitals has two lobes and one nodal plane.* A d orbital has four lobes and twonodal planes.An f orbital has eight lobes of maximum electron probability separated by three nodal planes.General Chemistry, Atoms First, 1st Addition, McMurry & Fay
How many electrons can fit in a 4s orbital?
All p orbitals are the same - px, py, pz - 2 electrons in each, 6 in a p orbital in total.
How many electrons can the p orbital in a given energy level hold?
6total 2 in px 2 in py and 2 in pz
What is a pi bond?
In chemistry, pi bonds (π bonds) are covalent chemical bonds where two lobes of one involved electron orbital overlap two lobes of the other involved electron orbital. Only one of the orbital's nodal planes passes through both of the involved nuclei.
