Wiglett can appear in multiple locations, primarily at the beach in the outer locations of the Paldea region. You want to check the beach at West Province Area Two, the one to the north of South Province Area Six, the beach to the east of South Province Area Five, and to the south of Levincia and East Province Area Two. These will be the prime locations you can track down Wiglett and add it to your collection.

Catching Wiglet is tricky. You will need to crouch down by holding the B button when approaching it so as not to scare it. Then, you will need to click the ZL button to zoom in, locking on the Pokémon. Finally, while in this mode and you have Wiglett targetted, throw your Poké Ball at it to engage it in combat, and now you can try catching it.
