Emily and Raj are not a good match. She will never settle into the main group because of the underlying conflict with Penny, not just because of the whole Raj thing, but because they are both so pretty and are natural Alphas. Lucy would have been a better match, and the writers have proven time after time that they can make really awkward characters who dont seem ideal additions to the main cast at first (remember Howard and Bernadette's first date? into great additions with their own source of comedy.

That being said, Lucy was too socialy awkward to spend any extended period of time with Raj, let alone the whole group. Her integration would be too long and hard fought and would not be worth the results.
