Since we know that monster souls cannot absorb monster souls, and humans cannot absorb human souls, we can assume that a soulless being is a 'soul vaccum' that can absorb any kind of soul, plus that fact that Flowey is a flower, so there may be special exceptions to the rules considering Flowey is a species that is neither human nor monster. if that was the case, then he would've absorbed frisks soul once he got 6 souls near the neutral route ending. flowey was a monster before as well, just soulless and filled with determination, but that doesn't affect anything since it is not enough to overpower frisks, and in frisks case, they cannot absorb another humans soul (when alive) or possibly even a monster soul either, because if that was the case, frisk and chara would be gods before undertale even happened. you understand buddy? if there were a special property that flowey had, the game would tell us through subtlty, because otherwise, it is a hole in the story, and is a poor way of explaining why flowey was able to do this, and that is unlikely.
