I think it is some sort of pokemon creating machine. Mr. Backlot is a compulsive liar which comes through his need to impress everyone (probably neglected as a child). So when he says "A cute eyed *insert pokemon*" and then his butler says "that pokemon doesn't exist in the garden" he tells him to go make some quick and thats where the butler runs off to.
