Effect

The Amulet Coin doubles the amount of prize money received after battle if the holder takes part in the battle. It also doubles the number of coins picked up from Pay Day, G-Max Gold Rush, and Make It Rain. In Pokémon Colosseum's Story Mode and Pokémon XD's colosseums, this bonus can be applied to the prize money earned after clearing a set.

In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire only, due to a minor glitch, when collecting money dropped by Pay Day, the amount displayed will be incorrect if it was boosted by an Amulet Coin (the correct amount will still be obtained).

Amulet Coin does not stack with Luck Incense or other Amulet Coins; however, it does stack with Happy Hour and Prize Money Power.

Once the Pokémon has participated in battle while holding it, it takes effect; it is unaffected by Klutz and takes effect even if the holding Pokémon faints or the Amulet Coin is removed or negated.
