You don't need to flatten it before deployment.
You can however easily verify your contract via etherscan-like explorers by using the "Solidity (Single file)" option and then pasting the flattened contract.

it seems i was doing this way on my other project, and it was jsut impossible to verifying the project

It keep saying me that the ABI do not match ....

Any idea?

I've experienced random issues too, only with *.etherscan and newer solidity compilers.
Use remix flattener, and try using solidity versions <=0.8.9 ...

so to be sure to understand:

1/ i deploy first my "Unflatened " contract,

2/ After it is deployed, i go back to remix and Flaten it, to get the ABI + Flatened version of contract

3/ Then i go on etherscan-Like website, and i past it??

All is correct?

When you talk about the solidity, i need to use the last one? 8.13 actually

Correct.

Use whatever fits your project best, Im just suggesting to use an earlier version if you have problems verifying on *.etherscan explorers.

You can also use hardhat ehterscan or truffle verify to verify an un-flattened contract easily

npx hardhat verify --network mainnet DEPLOYED_CONTRACT_ADDRESS "Constructor argument 1"

truffle run verify SimpleStorage --network rinkeby
