As in most (if not all) other games, Mythicals are not required to obtain the Shiny Charm or completion diploma, which are the most notable Pokedex-related rewards. If you want to go for true completion knowing that there's no further prize, you will of course need the Mythicals.

No, it is not required to finish the dex. Mythical Pokemon have always been an exception in needing to be caught since Red and Blue with Mew.
