Emulators are a piece of software (running on a PC) that pretends to be some other device. A PIC emulator is a program that pretends to be a PIC so that you can run a PIC program on it to see if it will work on a real PIC. With the bonuses of seeing what happens to ports, RAM and internal settings (like the status register) at each program step. They are *ESSENTIAL* development tools.
