Tobias is a pretty bad character from the standpoint DP generally had a decent amount of thought put into the story. Never even alluding to such a character existing prior to the league comes across as a pretty massive oversight.So the writers realized they were driving straight into a dead end street and had to resort to making Tobias on the spot, which is why he's a DEM, as he's an external element added in the last second so the writers wouldn't crash and burn.
But we seem to be in agreement. There wasn't much else they could do. Having an E4 or Champion competing would have been strange and difficult to justify. And I'll reiterate, a guy with a team of regular 'mons, even if it was filled with pseudos, seems like something even the staff felt wouldn't have worked as a proper roadblock.
