How To Get Flowey Back?
I just recently completed a neutral run where I experimented seeing how the story would go on if I only killed certain characters (it was my second run, my first run was True Pacifist) and I ended up choosing to kill Flowey instead of letting him live. I planned to start a Genocide run after resetting the game, but Flowey was gone when i did. Flowey is basically the base for each story in undertale (pacifist and genocide) so I know I can't progress any further without him being here. I really just want to start anew and, without Flowey, I dont think I can access True Resets anymore. It may be possible if I did a genocide route, but then I'd have to fight Sans, and that would take FOREVER.
Basically, I am wondering if I can erase all my progress somehow. I heard that True Resets don't erase everything entirely, so is there another way? Please respond, Undertale is the only game I have that's any fun and I don't want to have to buy another game.

He's still there, but you do miss some of his dialogue, as indicated in another answer. A True Reset isn't necessary to get him back, almost any reset will do - if Flowey survived your last run, he'll be at the beginning of your next one. If you killed him last time, of course, he won't confront you at the beginning of the game, because
he remembers your previous runs unless you do a True Reset, and is afraid to confront you because he can't Load his Savefile while you're around - and you freaking killed him!
Manipulating the save files is only necessary if you absolutely don't want to spend the time to complete the game again to get him back AND absolutely want to hear his dialogue early in the game. In Genocide, it might be worth it, as before you leave the Ruins he has one of only three voice-acted lines in the game if you qualify for Genocide when you go to leave.

A True Reset will be sufficient to restore Flowey's presence in future playthroughs. However, erasing the save data (as mentioned in the other answer) would get the same results faster.

It worked once I deleted the .ini file, and, since I'm on Mac, I thought this might be useful for others:
- Go to Finder. At the top you should see 'Go', click on that, and then click 'Go to folder'.
- Copy and paste
~/Library/Application Support/com.tobyfox.undertale/to that window. - Once there, you will find
undertale.ini, so you can delete it.
