Below are the Pokemon that were confirmed to be in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl before release via gameplay trailers, official images, and artwork featured on the official websites. The game and list of all Pokemon has already been released!
Numel and Sentret can be seen in the above photo. These 2 Pokemon were not previously in either original Diamond and Pearl games, nor the Platinum expansion.
Similarly, in the Japanese overview trailer released on November 5th, Teddiursa was revealed to be a Pokemon encountered in the underground Hideaways. The Teddiursa line was not previously a Pokemon native to the Sinnoh region.
November 5 Trailers: Everything We Learned
During the August 18 Pokemon Presents, Lanturn can be spotted as part of a cinematic that plays when the commentator talks about the Sinnoh region's new features. The Lanturn appears to be climbing a waterfall. It's unknown whether this is in-game footage or just part of the presentation, but Lanturn is highly likely to be part of the new Pokedex.
August 18 Pokemon Presents: Everything We Learned
 Raticate |
 Fearow |
The above images depict a Purugly and a Skuntank fighting a wild Raticate and Fearow, respectively. It's currently unknown if these Pokemon will be added to the Sinnoh Pokedex, or if this is a screenshot from the post game, where it was possible to encounter Raticate and Fearow in the Battle Zone.
Similarly, the above photo features a wild Weepinbell, who could also only be encountered in the Battle Zone, during the post game. It's currently unknown if Weepinbell is solely a National Dex inclusion or if it's a new addition to the Sinnoh Pokedex.
In the above promotion for Amity Square, Torchic, Skitty, and Shroomish are featured. Additionally, Jigglypuff can be seen in the Amity Square segment of the September 28 trailer. In the originals, these Pokemon could only be brought into Amity Square once you've obtained the National Dex.
