Actually, it's funny you should mention the "same reasons" Tokka and Rahzar were made. Tokka and Rahzar were actually not supposed to be in the 2nd turtles movie at all. These guys are original creations and were made as a back up, the REAL first choices were in fact Bebop and Rocksteady.
I read around IMDB.com and the web and found out that the actual creator of Bebop and Rocksteady was furious of how his characters were turned into dumb asses in the 80's cartoon series. He felt it was an insult to his characters and said that Rocksteady and Bebop are not actually that stupid.
When the movie was being made the artist said he refused to let them be in the movie if they were still going to be made into morons. So the producers did the next best thing: they still made moronic mutants but changed who it was. And thus, Tokka and Rahzar were born.
I am glad they chose Tokka and Rahzar though. Sure, I'd have loved to see Rocksteady and Bebop on the big screen but I enjoyed the new guys so much, they just had a great design and I thought they were amusing characters to work alongside someone as series as Shredder.
