I have the 2025 version of Monster Manual which is supposed to have recently added information on LAIRS, but id can't locate such information on D&D Beyond. How do I access LAIR rules and information?
If its really Lair Actions, those aren't a thing in the 2024 MM then, they're now replaced with another use of Legendary Resistance and Legendary Action while the monster is in the lair. (That said, I still use lair actions on top for more thematic flavor and also because i bought Fizban's and I'm going to use Fizban's)

"You're not chaotic evil! You're just chaotic SHIT!"
Looking to create a homebrew Monster having lair effects, but can't find a listing on what Lair effects are allowed (nor samples) such as with Legendary Actions and Mythic Actions. Or do I just make up anything I want?
Example: Creating a certain type of Fiend that has certain benefits when in an established Lair (which could be inside a bastion) while on the material plane.

What information are you expecting? Nothing has been 'recently' added to the monster manual (it's been out over a year)

Yeah, what exactly are you looking for that isn't already listed in the MM?
The monster manual should have their lair effects around the statblocks.
"You're not chaotic evil! You're just chaotic SHIT!"
It does. I believe that the person who made this doesn't own the MM. Just rather is looking at the free stat blocks and not finding the lair actions.

See this list: DnD Beyond Monsters - Filtered by Has Lair: Yes and Source: D&D Beyond Basic Rules
While lair actions aren't a thing in 5.5e (opting instead to add things as legendary actions), there's still described effects for them.
Ah, there's not really a premade list for making your own. You're kinda on your own, unless you just steal effects from the official monsters.
