I want a Porygon and i know in older versions you could get it at Bill's lighthouse, but the wiki doesn't list it as being available there anymore. So can i still get one there?

No, it was removed. The cyberspace quest had been buggy for a long time and caused softlocks for a lot of people.
You can now instead randomly (every 200th step) get a Porygon by accessing any PC in the game.
Guide from the Discord:
0. Change the difficulty off of easy. This Strategy will not work on easy mode, since it uses poison damage. Change it in the options menu temporarily.
1. Get a poisoned mon. This can be easily done with poison mushrooms in viridian forest. If you're instead getting poisoned from a wild mon, make sure you still have some health left when you get to the pc.
2. Find a pokemon center. The Viridian and pewter pokemon centers are great for this, as they have an npc placed in a convenient spot for a later step.
3. Stand in front of the pc. Walk one tile down and then one tile up until you take poison damage. If you're able to access the pc on the same tile you take poison damage, skip to step 4. Otherwise, exit the pokemon center via the left or right side of the 3-tile exit and return immediately. When you return, you should be able to take poison damage directly in front of the pc
4. walk two tiles down from the pc, and then 2 tiles up. You should continue to take poison damage the moment you reach the pc if your poisoned mon is still alive (it can die at this point). Interact with the pc every time you do this (You don't need to open the storage.) Repeat up to 50 times.
