Flash Stopper (フラッシュストッパー Furasshu Sutoppā?) is Bright Man's Special Weapon. This is not to be mistaken as Flash Man's power, Time Stopper. Unlike Time Stopper, Flash Stopper only works in bursts, stopping time for a short period, but this allows Mega Man to attack enemies with his Mega Buster while they are immobile -- Flash Stopper does not attack enemies directly.
This weapon is Pharaoh Man's weakness, as when it is activated, he cannot move. Pharaoh Man will also take damage faster when Flash Stopper is activated, as he does not flash while it is active and consequently does not have the brief invincibility period. Although the stopping effect itself does not damage him, he can be held in place with it, before firing away at him. The Flash Stopper weapon also has a bonus effect: It can allow Mega Man to attack shielded enemies without the buster shots being deflected.
Oddly enough, although Bright Man's version will stop time, no Robot Master besides Pharaoh Man will be frozen if the weapon is used against them.
