Should you just edit in updates instead of posting another answer?

Question

Especially if it already has a BA?

For example, I just updated this post, because I didn't think only four extra Pokemon was deserving of another answer. If there had been, say, 8 more Pokemon with Flame Body and Magma Armor, I probably would have just added another answer.

So, when should you edit and when should you go ahead and post another answer?

Just do what you think feels right. Small changes can be edited, but you can post a new answer if you think the answer is completely different. You can always ask if you're honestly not sure and want a second opinion.

I'm not a mod, so take this with a grain of salt, but I asked Fizz this question on his wall a few weeks ago. He said if it's a minor update, then feel free to just edit an existing answer. If it's major I would assume to make a new answer containing all relevant information.

If there's an outdated answer that needs a small change to make it up-to-date, should I edit the question directly, or leave it as a comment?

I would just edit the answer directly.

I'm not going to link the wall pages because those are very fluid in which messages they display, and it's going to become outdated very soon.

Hope I helped!
