No, but it helps if you do catch it. Arceus has a special ability called Multitype. When it holds a plate, it transforms into that plates preferable type. (E.g. Stone Plate = Rock Type, Zap Plate = Electric type). it is not proven when you get all of the plates arceus will appear, but what you really need the azure Flute.

Do you need all the plates to catch Arceus?
No, you do not need all of the plates to catch Arceus. You can use the plates to change Arceus' type, though. Arceus is only available by event (which has long since passed). You can also use an AR (action replay) to hack the game and get an Arceus, all without plates.
