I feel like OP has a point though. While humans may have possessed magic at some point, as well as monsters currently do, humans have souls. And so do monsters. Flowey has none.

Actually, wasn't there a thing about Alphys injecting (Determination) into a yellow flower that had been connected somehow with Asriel?

But even then, that would just be Determination. That's only the ability to SAVE, LOAD, etc. Frisk and Chara can't use similar attacks to Flowey or other monsters, even if they have a soul.

Technically, by that kind of logic, Flowey shouldn't really have the ability to use bullets. Maybe lash out with some sort of knife, sure, but...
