If you buy a dlc amiibo in super smash bros (nintendo switch) will the amiibo purchase the dlc character

Question

This confuses me a lot because I'm planning to buy and amiibo, but I'm wondering if that would give me the character also. Do I have to buy the dlc to use the amiibo character or does buying the amiibo give me access to the character?
