It's a triggered ability from the drake. Emmy only has protection from colored spells, not from abilities. Totally legit

Depends on the situation
If both are being brought in via  {Show and Tell}, then Emmy is not a legal target

That's not correct. They are both on the field at the same time.

From the gatherer:

The current player chooses first, then each other player chooses in turn order. A player does not have to reveal the chosen card, so long as it is clear *which* card was chosen. After all choices are made, the cards are put onto the battlefield simultaneously.

Emrakul will be on the battlefield in time for you to target him with gilded drakes ability.

I stand corrected. I was thinking of clone effects at that time for some reason

Clone effects mostly happen "as" the permanent enters. At that point the other permanents also haven't entered yet.
