Flash is adobe product and they don't provide binaries for FreeBSD, at least they didn't. if you really need flash, you may install gnash from ports. not fully capable but usually works, and doesn't need linux emulator and closed source code. Flash it not a standard. If you want flash mostly to view youtube use youtube-dl from ports. xpi-unplug plugin for firefox (also in ports) often helps with pages that have movies embedded with player. The side effect of using both tools would be having all movies actually downloaded - so you will actually HAVE that movies. downloaded movies play fine with mplayer.
