Best tip I've gotten for the Emerald Event: if you get a location you don't think you can finish, hit Pause and then exit out to the map. Repeat until you get to a location you like. Yes, each exit/retry will spend several seconds, but it's worth it if you end up in a place you can complete quickly and accurately.
