The 15 new Pokemon includes 8 that can be found in the wild, 6 that can be evolved using Sinnoh stones and a further 1 (confirmed) that can be hatched in eggs.
In the Wild
Shieldon, Cranidos, Combee, and Glameow can be found in the Pokemon Go wild now.
Shieldon and Cranidos are fossil Pokemon. In Pokemon Diamond and Pearl they were resurrected using the Armor and Skull fossils respectively. Their evolved forms are Bastiodon and Rampardos.

Combee, the bee Pokemon, is usually seen in the wild in a male to female ratio of 7 to 1. This is relevant because only the female version can evolve into Vespiquen. Currently, all Combee in Pokemon Go are female and can therefore all evolve.
Finally, the normal cat Pokemon Glameow can also be found. Consequently its evolved form Purugly can also be obtained.
