It's hard.
I'm from Czech Republick and I'm 13 years old so I learn english only 5 years
but I think it's Yoshis. I know , it like worse than Yoshies but I say it's Yoshis.
It's Yoshis because my teacher to english learn me this:
If on end of word is -y , in plural is -ies (Teddy - Teddies ; City - Cities)
And on end of Yoshi is -i so plural is Yoshis.

As true as that is about the english language, that does not apply to some things. With the word octopus the plural is octopi, perhaps Yoshi is the plural and the singular form is Yoshus.

It depends also on language, but don't forget that Yoshi is a foreign word, and Japanese don't have plurals anyway.

So just Yoshi is grammatical correct.

I saw Nintendo use Yoshis some times in Games and Manuals.

I'd have to say Yoshis. However, I voted Pepto-Bismol for hilarity.

Eh, it's spelled different in every other game it seems, what an official source says really doesn't mean anything. (Wow, did I just say that?)

Wrong. You fail at English.

Well that's great when you're speaking Japanese. The question is how it's supposed to be said in English.

I reckon Yoshi is the the correct plural for Yoshi:

Which sounds more correct:
A herd of Yoshi
A herd of Yoshis
A herd of Yoshies
A herd of pepto-bismol

It's like a herd of sheep

I would spell it Yoshis, because Yoshies sounds for my like Yoshi-ees.

I think I'll ask my English-teacher about that.

So, I don't understand your Post, Kyouji Craw, but I asked my Teacher, she told me that Yoshi's logical plural is Yoshis, without 'e', because the ending ies is only aplied to 'y's.

How could it be Yoshi's? Wouldn't that mean Yoshi owns it? Well since I found it on a couple sites that it is Yoshis... You are close. Just take out the '!
