D&D 5E (2024) Dungeons & Dragons 2025 Monster Manuals show up in the wild.

This is my biggest complaint.

They stopped grouping monsters together (dragons -> all the dragons; devils -> all the devils; demons -> all the demons) and instead have individual alphabetical entries.

This makes them each feel unique, sure. BUT. I have 28 years of reading by category, and now I have to adjust when I go to reference it. UGH.
Agreed. I had to re-order them to the old way in my homebrew reference document of all 5e monsters.

I had wondered why page 174 of the new DMG included lizardfolk among the inhabitants of the Inner Planes. I guess that's why!
Oh, I had not even noticed that! I heard elsewhere that Aarocka are Elemwntals tied to Plane of Air in the MM now, so along with Lizardfolk for Earth and Azer for Fire, I suspect that Mermaids and/or Sauaghin might be low level Water Elementals now.

Aarakocra as Elementals makes sense to me! They're also mentioned in that list
