Can I go straight from the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23 to the Adrenaline GTS 25 and skip the Adrenaline GTS 24?

You can, but treat the Adrenaline GTS 25 as a new shoe rather than a restock. Both the Adrenaline GTS 24 and the Adrenaline GTS 25 reworked the ride, so a Adrenaline GTS 23 owner takes two character changes at once: DNA Loft v2 foam became Nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3, tuned softer than the 24 and the drop moved 12 mm to 10 mm.

How much did the weight change across these two updates?

0.5 oz on in total, 10.1 oz to 10.6 oz in a men's US 9. Almost all of it came in the second update; the Adrenaline GTS 24 weighed 10 oz.

Is the Adrenaline GTS 24 the better buy than either of these?

On paper it splits them: 10 oz against 10.1 oz for the Adrenaline GTS 23 and 10.6 oz for the Adrenaline GTS 25, on a 39 mm heel and a $140 list price. Whether that is worth chasing depends on what the Adrenaline GTS 24 update actually did, which the section above works through.

Did the Adrenaline GTS get taller between the Adrenaline GTS 23 and the Adrenaline GTS 25?

Heel stack went 36 mm to 37 mm, by way of 39 mm on the Adrenaline GTS 24. Drop moved 12 mm to 10 mm, which is the change your calves and Achilles notice.

Where does the Adrenaline GTS 25 sit in the Adrenaline GTS lineup now?

It is the current model, two versions on from the Adrenaline GTS 23 and the newest one you can buy at full retail.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Two updates and 2 years separate the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23 from the Adrenaline GTS 25. Net change: 0.5 oz heavier, 1 mm more heel stack, a drop change from 12 mm to 10 mm, a new midsole, $5 more at list. Both updates in between reworked the ride, so the Adrenaline GTS 25 is two character changes away from what you own.

Or buy the Adrenaline GTS 24 instead?

The Adrenaline GTS 24 is worth a look only if you want the ride it introduced, because that is the update that changed the shoe. Buying it to soften the jump does not work: you would be adapting to the same change either way, just at an older spec.
