    Download the bios and look at the settings there should be a bios option, it is usually the option button on your phone or tablet used in the first screen of the emulator to see settings

    Depending on the emulator you may also need to change certain settings like save type (FLASH1M_V103 (1024Mbit) aka 131072KB aka 128MB) and enable RTC (Real Time Clock for pokemon to work correctly) check the settings regardless though for RTC and make sure it is on for Pokemon games, only touch save type settings if the game keeps saying saves are corrupt

    To test after you make sure RTC is enabled play the small part until you can save in-game (not a save state), save and quit, exit out the emulator correctly then load it all back up and try the game again it should try and load the in-game save, if it says the save is corrupt then the save setting have not been detected correctly

    If RTC is not enabled alot of the game is not playable though it is not something you will notice at first only when you need to do anything that is related to time like certain events and or other in-game time related stuff

    Which emulators have you tried? I played Pokemon Emerald just fine on John GBA Lite.
