To the last anon: ...no

Frisk has a soul. That's the entire point of the battle system, to protect your soul from the monsters.

The point of the True Lab was to show what Alphys has done in her research, and explain what happened to Asriel with the golden flowers when he died. It also tells you that monsters cant handle DETERMINATION because they don't have physical bodies, so they melt together (forming the amalgamates).

Chara and Frisk have the same soul power, the power of DETERMINATION. While all humans have it (which is how Alphys was able to extract some from the 6 souls for her expiriments), Chara and Frisks soul power is entirely that.

Flowey can use SAVE because he was injected with DETERMINATION, and he is in a physical body (the flower), so he won't melt even though he's the essence of Asriel. (essence is like a broken soul, i believe. because once he gains the power of SOUL again from the humans, he regains his true form)

But Flowey's SAVE power isnt as strong as chara's/frisks, because he isn't a human and doesn't have his own soul
