Going for the Gold (決戦! アジアの頂点をかけて!, A Battle to the Finish! For the Top of Asia!) is the fifteenth episode of the Beyblade: 2000.
Summary
The finals are about to begin in the Asian Qualifying Tournament with the winning team advancing to the World Beyblade Championships. In the first round, Max goes against Gary from the White Tigers in a best of three battle. The first round goes without a hitch as Max easily takes care of his opponent and with the win, Max becomes a little over confident.
Meanwhile, Gary loses it and as his rage intensifies, so does the strength of his Galzzly Bit-Beast. In the second round, Gary surprises Max his Bey's newfound power and after Max puts up a respectable defense, Max finally falls prey to Gary's Galzzly.
Now the Bladebreakers realize that they're not as quite tough as they think they are and when they enter the ring for the final round, they try a new strategy. However, Gary has other plans and makes quick work in defeating his inferior opponent, handing a first round loss to our heroes.
