I do indeed believe Emerald has the only unnoticeable semblance. The only ones closest to being unnoticeable are Pyrrha and Glynda. However, there are so many factors that could go wrong that it would just be better off to not cheat. I'll use Pyrrha as an example. Pyrrha has managed to keep her semblance a secret due to only using subtle movements: Dodging at the last possible second while diverting an attack (versus Mercury), using the semblance to affect only her equipment (We see her shield slide down her arm with a black outline versus Penny). If Pyrrha were to help someone cheat, she would need to calculate the exact timing of when to use her semblance since she isn't using it for herself or for the enemy directly in front of her. She'd have to calculate how the enemy is moving so that she can use her semblance AND make sure it isn't noticed. The problem is that unless she's a mind reader, this won't be happening. If the opponent were to attack, let's say slice diagonally, Pyrrha would need to subtly change it so that the person she's helping could dodge/parry/counter/whatever. Not only would she need to know that the person she's helping is capable enough to do this, there is a strong chance that whatever subtle movements she changes wouldn't affect the trajectory at all. If it did, the cameras will pick up on the "weird motion" that the opponent just made. People (including the opponent) would question why he/she did that and why he/she continually does so. The only way to avoid all of these factors would to NOT subtly change trajectory and just use the sembance blatantly which, again, would be picked up by the spectators.
