atlantidos is genitive case.
atlantida is accusative case.
atlantis is nominative case. 

It is just morphology.
example for atlantida:  http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=*%29atlanti%2Fda&la=greek&can=*%29atlanti%2Fda0&prior=th\n&d=Perseus:text:1999.01.0179:text=Criti.:section=113e&i=1

What do you mean just morphology? Greek language doesn't work that way. that's the atic version which a small change on a particular word changes the meaning of the entire sentence.

so explain to me then why use three version and not just one?

after I checked the Perseus link:

Nevertheless, I went to Perseus and guess what?! you hadn't even looked at your own material. Do you understand what accusative, genitive and  nominative means? it made my case, not yours.  So, go back and study them and then get back at me.

you said it's just morphology, so why Atlantis is called Atlantis Nisos and Atlantida is called Atlantida Nison?
nikas,

You asked about 25d
The Atlantis island was swallowed up...
In 25d, "nesos" is in nominative case, to match "Atlantis", which is also in nominative case.  http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=nh%3Dsos&la=greek&can=nh%3Dsos0&prior=*)atlanti\s&d=Perseus:text:1999.01.0179:text=Tim.:section=25d&i=1

You also asked about 113c.
Poseidon settled/colonized/established "the Atlantis", for his own allotment.
For 113c, "ten/ho"  is in feminine accusative case, to match "Atlantida" which is also feminine accusative case.   
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=th%5Cn&la=greek&can=th%5Cn1&prior=*poseidw=n&d=Perseus:text:1999.01.0179:text=Criti.:section=113c&i=2


You also asked about 113e, which is like the situation in 113c.
He alloted the island, "the Atlantis" as a whole, into 10 portions.
For 113e, "ten/ho" and "neson" are both in feminine accusative case, matching "Atlantida" which is also in femine accusative case.
