I can't update my macbook pro to Catalina.

Right now I'm using MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018)Running on(Mojave 10.14.6).

When I try to update It's said "Update not found The requested version of macOS is not available"

MacBook Pro 15”, macOS 10.14

Without going to the Mac App Store, once you click that Upgrade Now button in Software Update, iit should download the installer, and proceed until you have a typical Catalina installation panel open on your Mac, where you would continue if you wanted to perform the Catalina upgrade, or cancel if you wanted to find the full installer in your /Applications folder.

What you are showing should not be happening. Reboot your Mac, and try Software Update again.

Sounds like you are looking for an update, rather than an upgrade. Use this link and click on "Upgrade now"

On Mojave, there should be a pesky red badge on System Preferences directing you to Software Update where you can click on the macOS Catalina 10.15.1 Upgrade Now button. Like so:
