Then he blinked again as he looked around and began to realize that the store was stocked with a lot of PokeSupplies. There were so many brands of different products, all of which were aimed at the group that included him. From now on, it was going to be his responsibility to chose from between them, and what he picked would affect any pokegirl that he'd have.
"Is something the matter?" Brock asked.
Ash turned and frowned at him. "Why do you ask?"
"Because you're not doing anything except standing here. I'm sure that you've been in a store before."
"Yeah, but I never really had to do the shopping like this for myself before."
"Oh.... That's right. Well, I'm sure that you'll do fine."
"Why wouldn't I?" Ash asked, and started walking again. "I mean, it's not like I'm stepping into a genius school or something."
"True. And it looks like they have a good supply."
"Which is great for us. First on my list, the nutrient bars for my Dryad."

But then, the 'chase' had been going on for a while, so there was little reason to not be noticing the clues that regularly showed up as the 'target' continued onward. It wasn't too much of a problem to track him, as he wasn't exactly trying to hide at the moment.
But even if he did, Ash Ketchum would still have someone on his trail.
This had been going on for a while, and the one following after him was not about to give up without actually coming into contact with him. As it stood, this was important enough to keep on the same track, and see if he could be brought into the situation that the tracker was hoping for. If that was not to happen, then it would likely be a problem, as that would leave the goal uncompleted, and that was not a desirable outcome.
