Read description for more information:
This is a glitch in Japanese Ruby/Sapphire. It was fixed in the English versions. The glitch was found by Semijii (蝉爺) on Niconico Douga in early 2010 (http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9721286) but they did not seem to know what the cause was or at least the exact cause.

Steps:
1) Get 40 small dolls of the same kind.
2) Place 16 of them in your room.
3) Next, go to your Secret Base and place a Heavy Desk, then a Ragged Desk, and a Pretty Desk (I suppose other suitable size desks are likely to work)
4) Use the desks to place 12 dolls edit: just five dolls may work.
5) Exit the list with B and bring it up again. The blue Poké Balls that indicate you've placed a doll in your house may disappear, and the name of the top item will become corrupted to something like "に　もどします！" but I have also seen "て　す！す！ドール". Additionally, the text next to えらんで may become something like グ?2/?5ソ.

It will have the description of and function like the old doll.

Extra information documented by me:
6) Try tossing items below the slot that has a glitched item name and you can create more glitch item names, this time with non doll descriptions.

Somehow you can scroll beyond Cancel and glitch out the game. I don't know exactly how but if you follow my exact steps in the video you can hopefully replicate it.
