that seems to be a no.. monsters still seem to have incremental resistances to certain status affects including flash bombs..HOWEVER i have seen a loop hole in this... exhaust. it would appear that enough exhaust shots or exhaust damage frome weapons like the heavey divider appear to weaken a monster to status affects even after A use kinda like a reset button.
