(I OOCly doubt this is enough for a promotion, but Malik's kind of eager to hurry up the ladder, so what the hey.)
Malik arrived in Johto in February of 2012. He ditched the last few days of his Rocket training in eagerness to get out and start stealing things (and upon learning one of his archenemies from home had also arrived).
He encouraged Rangiku to set up a Pokémon ranch/catching service for other trainers, with the hopes of creating the Team a nice, convenient target down the line. He also was hired by Cobra to make business cards that'd allow him to infiltrate the Game Corner. (Malik isn't about to report that now that he knows it's Team property and Cobra's being punished, but - it happened, all the same.) He also surveyed the population with the intent of discovering both potential targets and the best way to psychologically upset the average Johto civilian.
His most noteworthy contributions have come during this most recent plot. As head of the Johto garbage-distribution division, Malik checked up on his drivers frequently. He also attempted to organize looting as best he could, and (as an employee and to make up for the business card thing) protected the Game Corner's status as a base by pretending, as a "civilian", to get beaten up defending it. (Or well. Presumably the beating won't be pretend.)
As far as weekly handwaved things are concerned, he's never missed a report/theft delivery, and as a day job mans the Voltorb Flip section of the Game Corner. He's also started to network with his fellow Rockets, but no schemes have fully blossomed yet.
