The most common pattern for this is for two members of the group to be each other's {{Foil}}s, frequently coming into conflict with each other, with the third member of the group acting as the mediator, keeping TheTeam together and balancing their respective personalities. This is the dynamic that makes the ensemble powerful. In fact on almost any metric of personality, appearance, or skill, you could break the trio down to two extremes and a medium.

Note the word 'ensemble'. These characters interact directly with each other. You can have three characters in a story that serve as {{foil}}s of one another without it being a Power Trio. TheThreeFacesOfEve, for example, might be a Power Trio with the three "faces" all in the same family, or it might be composed of characters that never meet, and not be a Power Trio at all.
