Beyblade - Episode 04

is the 4th episode of the Beyblade 2000 series and 4th episode overall.

Summary
The Beyblade Regional Qualifying Tournament is underway as Tyson, Max, Ray and even Kenny are entered to see if they can dethrone Kai, the reigning champion. As our announcers, Brad Best and A.J. Topper rev up the crowd, Kenny is first into battle but without a Bit Beast in his blade, he falls quickly to Kai.

The tension builds as Tyson takes on the Blade Sharks in the next round. His biggest competition is against Carlos who breaks team ranks and decides to go it on his own. As the battle progresses, Tyson realizes Carlos is the toughest competitor he's ever faced. Yet with the odds stacked against him, Tyson manages to slip into the next round.
