Trade In target, works nice with Totem Dragon, Nice against Monarchs and can rez REDMD. Dark Horus may be a little safer. Iunno.

Exploder Dragons? They be earth and generally staples in Dragon decks.

I leik's my Totems. Exploder is meh and hasn't been a 'Staple' in Dragon Decks since like...Cyber Dark maybe. I'd run maybe 1-2 in the side deck.

I think Exploder Dragon is pretty important here. Against GBs, which you know you are going to run up against a lot in Pegasus League, Exploder gets around your opponent's Waboku, or at least makes them use up their War Chariot on its effect.
3 Trade-Ins and 4 monsters to trade in? Granted you can throw away a dead Trade-In to Phoenix Wing Wind Blast, but I don't think the card draw is that important in this deck, and in the case of Morphing Jar, could actually hurt you instead of help you, especially against some of the other decks in this environment like GBs, Six Samurai, and Elemental Heroes. If you absolutely need a card drawer, I would recommend Yamata Dragon. It's FIRE, can be brought out just as easily with Totem Dragon as LaDD, and refills only your hand instead of both yours and your oppponent's hand.
Koa'ki Meiru Drago seems to be ill-suited to the meta of Pegasus League. It's a great card in the regular meta, but when you know for certain that your opponent's decks are going to be running at least 16 non-LIGHT, non-DARK creatures, all Koa'ki Meiru Drago is going to do is probably hurt your ability to summon REDMD. I'd suggest Debris Dragon as a replacement, as this will give you the ability to summon out Exploder Dragonwing from the Extra Deck, which is another excellent card to run against GBs, and probably Six Samurai as well.

Definitely replace the Koa'ki Merui Dragos with Debris. You're apparently not going to be running into many Light/Darks in this months Pegasus League.
They work great with Totem, if you have two Totems in the grave, summon one through its effect then play Debris and get the other and synch all 3 for a Stardust or something.
Morphing jar might mess with your Totems though, if it's in the grave it'll fudge up your Totem's ability to self revive, side deck it out for Exploder Dragon if you have trouble with it.
The spells seem kind of lacking, maybe take out the MST and Sarcophagus for Giant Truneade/Wingbeat and Lightning Vortex...I don't know it feels like it needs some sort of removal to clear the way for a 5,000 swing from FGD. Although I suppose BRD can take care of that, Debris+Masked can get her out quick.
*sigh* in only there was a pegasus league near my house...
HOLY CRAP!!! I just realized we're getting Brionac in the Hidden Arsenal pack (US release Nov 10th). Even more incentive to run Debris Dragon, Debris + Totem = BRIONAC! IT WAS LIMITED FOR A RAISIN!!!
*man I have been away too long*

Debris can only synch into Dragons. Brionac is a Sea Serpent. :(

Barrel Dragon, Blowback Dragon, Fusilier Dragon, Divine Dragon Aquabizzar, ect.
There's A LOT of monsters with Dragon in their names who ARE NOT Dragon-Type monsters.

Yea I know, I've been out of the game for awhile. I checked the news to see whats come out and saw Brionac Dragon of the Ice Barrier, squealed with fanboy delight, didn't even think to verify the type. It's an honest mistake (that happens more than I'd care to admit), shut up.
I do love this deck though, I might even steal it. I love dragons, probably a little too much, so much so my picture should probably be in the newspaper "Do not let this person near your pet dragons."...XD!
I really don't have the foggiest idea what decks you might go up against in this pegasus league, but if its true what Truthseeker said about GB you might want to side some Threatening Roars. I remember those worked fine against them.
If you run into heavy swarmers Burst Breath is just the thing and it fits the Dragon theme.

Just curious, why Yamata Dragon over Chthonian Emperor or Tyrant?
Pyrrhus

Yamata is epic with Totem and its effect is awesome. Cthonian's double attack is decent but requires a normal summon to activate so in the end often results in being dead weight. Tyrant costs a tribute to revive via REDM and its other effects are meh at best.
I'd drop a Prime for a Genesis as it would let you recycle LaDD and Yamata, dump dead cards and reuse Level 8s for Trade-In.

exploder is not always needed. not a staple card.

genesis is not worth it i would rather get dragons in the grave then get em out, on top of that prime is way better, much protection needed.
this deck lacks anything to deal with spell speed three, i think it needs something to deal with that tool, trap stun, royal decree(although not spell speed 3 great card)

I still maintain that Exploder Dragon is good against GBs since it works even vs. Waboku, so just based on that, I'd still recommend putting at least one in. Against Six Samurai, it can get that second Six Samurai monster off the field to invalidate the effects of the first one.
I think spell/trap removal is actually pretty important here, more important than monster removal. My current deck runs 3x Stamping Destruction in addition to Giant Trunade, Heavy Storm and MST, which gives you a lot of defense against things like Royal Decree, War Chariot, Solemn Judgment, etc. I'd try A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon, but I don't always have a high-level Dragon to put back in hand. I should, however, always have some Dragon on the field for Stamping Destruction.
