Looking for good jacket under 35 USD
I've recently joined a xc and downhill focused mountain biking team and we usually ride from mid day to a bit past sunset. My jersey has pockets in the back and I'm looking for a long sleeve type of coat that would fold up small to fit in them. It would be ideal if it was on Amazon in a men's medium. I honestly just don't have experience with this type of gear (I'm new to mtb) and I was wondering if anyone had budget recommendations(ideally under 35 USD since I don't care about what brand it is).

You might consider a vest, maybe some arm warmers if you won't need the coverage for the entire ride.

I really like my Patagonia Houdini but the regular price is $100... Maybe there is a cheaper alternative. It squishes down into its own attached bag smaller than my fist.

you're not going to find a cycling-specific jacket for that price unless you happen to find a killer deal of a sale. Costco often has good deals on good clothing. I've always found cheap but good quality athletic gear at TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Sierra Trading Post, etc.

^^^Yes, check Sierra Trading Post. I just looked, they have some nice stuff in your $ range. Check the sizing charts, bike stuff often runs small for US folks. https://www.sierra.com/all/mens-cycl...rt=LowestPrice

I can't believe I actually looked on Amazon for this since anyone can look or shop for themselves, 
BUT, here is something:

Look at the O2 cycling jacket. It's about $35.00 and works. It won't breath as well as a higher priced jacket but it fits your stated needs.
If you want a step up, the J&G Yellow Jacket, mentioned above, is very good for it's purpose and a bit more durable.
