Does a tornado need a wall cloud?

No, some tornadoes will form without a wall cloud. In most cases there are of a variety called landspouts, which are tornadoes that do not form in association with the mesocyclone of a supercell. These tornadoes are typically weak, though on occasion have been known to cause damage as high as F3.
