After I did look into it a bit more... I would say the chances are much better for an Elemental then a Dragon.
We have 12 Elementals before EMN on Innistrad in all rarities and primarily in the colors green and red. In contrast only 3 red dragons which are either mystic or rare.
In addition we also got a red dragon in EMN spoiled on mystic. So I think, it will be unlikely to see another flip card with a dragon on the front... But perhaps a red Emerge card in the 5 colorless slots on rare.
The only thing I am not sure about is, if Emrakul can corrupt Elementals.
I've been having this argument over on Magicspoiler...
Angels are made of mana. They are not alive. They Exist. The same for Demons.
Elementals exist. Elementals have been known to be sentient and if Emrakul can corrupt mana creatures like Angels and Demons, why can't it corrupt creatures born from nature?

Hi, I'm new!
Mark my words, the Year of Eldrazi will not be the last we see of them.
Don't get me wrong, I would agree that when Angels are on the menu nothing speaks against devils, demons and elementals... I am simply not sure... I was at first pretty confused from then Vampires, because it somehow has to be alive.... But that argument basically goes out of the window if you see that she corrupted a mana stone.
All in all her influence seems pretty inconsistent.

We are not sure emrakul influences demons yet right? No demon eldrazi cards either.

Yeah, i agree that what Emrakul can affect is way to all over the place. That's what happens when you decide to outright change things last minute. Don't built your story up and put things in places they shouldn't be. I feel Innistrad 2 could have been thing great mad scientist story *Ludevic* and have Emrakul show up on the third visit. But time will never know...

Sallucianious, the appearance of Emrakul on Innistrad wasn't a last minute change - it was decided from the very first time they started discussing a return to Innistrad:

That's what they say, but i don't believe anything is set in stone. These sets of cards were made years ago. They could have easily stalled off the return to Emrakul-Innistrad until after we stopped hating Eldrazi. Instead they went full ahead captain Eldrazi and didn't stop to think players might not like Eldrazi block to block. They could have easily written in stories of planeswalkers telling tales of this monster destroying their plane, giving us insight into Emrakul's new powers. They could still have gone back to Innistrad after BFZ, they could have made it some mad scientist theme. Ludevic is a character.
But no, we get a full year of Eldrazi and they probably still think we like them.
Wolfkin Bond is #178, so that could leave room for 2 multicolor cards before Bloodhall Priest.
Yeah! Room enough for a RG Elemental!
There is, very likely, only one more multi-color card in the set and it will be [mana]GW[/card] as that is the only color pair not represented on a dual color card. Wizards has been very careful about not printing more than ten dual-color cards in a set that is not multi-color heavy (see Ravnica), making sure each pair is represented.

A standard small set is now 184 cards (Oath had two extra Wastes). The balance of Eldritch Moon is DFCs (205 - 184 = 21). I'm guessing they are printed on a 3x7 sheet. Ulrich is the only normal transform card, meaning there will be 20 cards that turn into Eldrazi. We've seen 17 DFCs so far, so expect 4 more.
Are you counting the meld cards? They are sort of double-faced even if they don't transform normally.
It just occurred to me that the meld cards might take up a 'Transform' slot in packs - which might mean that the Rare/Mythic Rarity of some of them might not matter for limited.
(EDIT: Looks like you are - I just went through and counted 15 including meld so I missed a couple and you are counting Melds)

UG waves hi. It's not represented either (Other than Tamiyo) WG and WU each got their own and GB got two. Where is my Simic love?
I am including the meld cards. Maro said somewhere that they count towards the DFC quota, since they can't be printed on a normal sheet.

The Simic love was eaten by this guy: Lashweed Lurker, which is the Simic uncommon for this set. EMN is more enemy colored focused which is why the every enemy color has an uncommon card.
And yes the 6 meld cards are part of the 21 flip cards: 6 meld cards, 1 Werewolf and 14 Eldrazi transformations.

Lashweed Lurker, I know it's not in the casting cost, but it is in the emerge cost
I did miss that GB got two but, at the time I made my post about the final multi-color card, GW was the last pair to appear.

Ah, yes, I missed Lashweed Lurker I noticed it when it appeared on the spoiler list, but I missed it when I was specifically looking for gold cards.

Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain.
Power of the Moon is card 68, though the translated name is incorrect. Maybe Lunar Force or Light of the Moon instead? It has to be before Mausoleum Wanderer, whose name was confirmed in the 7/7 Daily Update on the mothership.
I counted 44 rares listed in the crunch but there's a "46/47" on the top numbers. Do we have 2 spoiled but unlisted rares or do we have 3 to go?
There was only one new rare in today's spoiler - Impetuous Devils (red, basically Ball Lightning for 2RR with a no-untap-clause Provoke trigger on attack.

Vampires on Innistrad (and Zendkiar but in a different way) not not undead. They call it a condition of the blood.

Things where not shifted last minute, in fact wizards new Emrakul would be on Innistrad during the first block.

It's at 0:39 of the trailer
I coulden't find the spoiler picture
The reason is it might sound like it might exile a creature till it leaves the field. or taps a creature and doesn't untap till it leaves the field.
There was only one new rare in today's spoiler - Impetuous Devils (red, basically Ball Lightning for 2RR with a no-untap-clause Provoke trigger on attack.
That was the last rare actually
I knew there was one more
As a matter of fact the whole set is revealed.
C 1-12, 12 cards
W 13-48, 36 cards
U 49-80, 32 cards (4 Emerge cards)
B 81-114, 34 cards (2 Emerge cards)
R 115-149, 35 cards (+ Hanweir Battlements)
G 150-180, 31 cards (3 Emerge cards)
M 181-191, 11 cards (1 Emerge card)
A 192-202, 11 cards
L 203-205, 3 cards
In the end every color has 36 cards when you put the associated cards into account.
Except for green which has 34 cards...
15 Double-faced Cards + 6 Meld Cards = 21 card with a non standard back side.
No surprises here.
Grim Flayer and Tamiyo, Field Researcher are the true oddities in that set because these two cards basically are the two missing green cards...

Nope. Not one.
I guess squirrels are immune to Emrakul's warpin' madness.
The art book confirms demon can be influenced, with the new host of nightmares being made of eldrazi angels and demons.
