Catching Jigglypuff in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

In order to catch Jigglypuff, you will need to go to the Pokémon Mansion. This can be found south of Hearthome City, past the police officers and the nice shrubbery. The mansion is on the right side of the route and you can enter to find Jigglypuff. 

Before you do that, though, you need to talk to Mr Backlot, the owner of the mansion. He can be found on the right hallway once inside of the mansion, through the door with a lady in front of it. You can talk to him and he will tell you what Pokémon he saw in his Trophy Garden that specific day.

If he tells you that he saw Jigglypuff, you can head out to the Trophy Garden and encounter Jigglypuff. However, if he tells you another Pokémon, you need to wait a day and go back to him. You need to repeat this process until he tells you he saw Jigglypuff. This is the only way to encounter the Pokémon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
