14Related to both TheThreeFacesOfEve and FourTemperamentEnsemble. Unrelated, however, to FourIsDeath. [[WebAnimation/TeenGirlSquad Usually.]]
15
16This particular ensemble typically consists of:
17* A sweet-naïve girl (usually TheDitz).
18* A tomboyish one (usually a DeadpanSnarker).
19* A pretty/sexy one (a ReallyGetsAround type or perhaps merely a glamour-obsessed pretty one).
20* An admirable kind of character (usually the narrator and wise TeamMom of the group who holds it together).
21
22The admirable character might be {{The Smart G|uy}}al or the CoolBigSis or the TeamMom. Otherwise, the mother figure will be doubled up with either the sweet-naive girl, the sexy girl or even [[TeamDad the mannish one]].
23
24This {{ensemble|s}} can typically be found in SchoolgirlSeries. Compare TownGirls. See also BeautyBrainsAndBrawn. For the SpearCounterpart to this group, see FourManBand.
25----
26!!Examples:
27[[foldercontrol]]
28[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
29* ''Manga/AChannel'' has Run (TheDitz), Tooru (TheCaretaker), Nagi (OnlySaneMan) and Yuuko ([[AloofDarkHairedGirl The one with the model-like body]]).
30* ''Manga/AyakashiTriangle'': Suzu's group from middle school fit TheThreeFacesOfEve, with Suzu as the Wife (sweet and motherly), Yayo the Seductress (energetic and openly sexual), and Lu the Child (quiet and cute, though she's neither younger nor entirely innocent). In high school, Matsuri becomes the "tomboy" of the group, which they then dub "Kachofugetsu" based on the first kanji in their surnames. In a twist, Matsuri is actually [[GenderBender a boy who was turned female]] and still identifies as male, he just presents himself publicly as a tomboyish girl (even to Yayo and Lu).
31* ''Anime/BlackRockShooter'' anime ended with Mato, Yuu, Kagari, and Yomi as this.
32* The Knight Sabers in ''Anime/BubblegumCrisis'' -- Nene is the cute naive one; Linna is a dancer with a different boyfriend every episode; Priss has the bad attitude and tomboyish ways, and Sylia is the boss who keeps them all working together as a team.
33** Played differently in ''Tokyo 2040'' -- Nene was still the cute one, Linna switched to TheQuietOne, Priss was the mannish/straightforward one, and Sylia was the worldly one with severe issues under her smile.
34* ''Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun'' has the {{Tomboy}} Misaka, the {{Ojou}} [[LovableSexManiac Kuroko]], the cute Uiharu and the one who [[StepfordSmiler tries to be]] a GenkiGirl Saten.
35** Similarly, Team ITEM from [[Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex both]] [[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun series]] fits this with the {{Yandere}} [[spoiler:Mugino]], the ill girl Rikou, the GenkiGirl Saiai, and the MadBomber BadassNormal Frenda. [[spoiler:They lose this trope after Frenda dies and is eventually replaced by Shiage.]]
36* ''Anime/DayBreakIllusion'' has Akari (sweet and helpful), Luna (shy and reserved), Seira (cold and cynical), and Ginka (bright and fearless). The show is generally darker than other examples of this trope but still fits.
37* Since only about two members of its cast are male, ''Manga/DoujinWork'' also has an example. Innocent Sora, quiet Tsuyuri, tomboyish Najimi, and the OfficeLady Kaneru.
38* ''Manga/EncouragementOfClimb'' has this with Hinata (pushy, go-getter) and Aoi (ditzy and naive, the [[TomboyAndGirlyGirl girly-girl to Hinata's tomboy]]), Kokona (pretty, feminine) and Kaeda (kind, experienced).
39* ''Manga/GabrielDropout'' parodies the trope by having girls with mostly negative traits, featuring: OtakuSurrogate and DeadpanSnarker Gabriel, OnlySaneWoman, and TeamMom Vignette, [[TheDitz ditzy]] ButtMonkey Satanichia, and {{Ojou}} Raphiel.
40* ''Anime/GalaxyAngel'' has Milfeulle, the girly one; Forte, the {{Bifauxnen}} obsessed with firearms; Ranpha, the boy-crazy one; and Vanilla, the EmotionlessGirl and silent observer.
41* ''Anime/GenesisOfAquarion'' has the female Element Users: Silvia de Alisia (tomboyish and short-tempered), Reika (sensitive and has the most bad luck), Rena Rune (vampire loli), and Tsugumi Rosenmeier (in love with Reika).
42* ''Manga/HidamariSketch'' centers around [[CheerfulChild cheerful teen]] Yuno, GenkiGirl Miyako, Hiro ([[HollywoodPudgy weight-conscious]] "[[TeamMom wife material]]"), and stoic writer Sae. It may no longer be one after the addition of Nori and Nazuna.
43* The girls of Issei's harem in the first season of ''Literature/HighSchoolDXD'' certainly fit this with: innocent nun Asia Argento, stoic tough as nails badass Koneko Tojou, the sexy and flirtatious Akeno Himejima, and the [[TheLeader team leader]] Rias Gremory. Obviously, it no longer counts as the harem gets larger and larger.
44* ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' has the Erika (oblivious to all matters related to love and the least studious of the four), Maki (a {{Tsundere}} and the only one with male friends), Kashiwagi (the only one with a boyfriend [[spoiler:and an active sex life]]), and Karen (the mediator of the group, [[ShipperOnDeck though not without her own obsessions]]). That said, this only really applies in the ''We Want to Talk About Kaguya'' spin-off due to Karen and Erika rarely showing up in the main series.
45* ''Anime/KnightHunters'':
46** QuirkyMinibossSquad[=/=]EvilCounterpart team Schreient in the original anime series, with Nanami/Tot as the sweet naive one, [[spoiler:Asuka]]/Neu as the tough one, Karen/Schoen (German for beautiful) as the vain pretty one, and Chizuru/Hel as the sensible leader.
47** It's notable that the four ''male'' protagonists fit the trope rather neatly as well, with Omi as the sweet naive one (at least compared to the others; given that all four are [[HitmanWithAHeart assassins]], none of them can be ''very'' naive), Ken as the masculine tough guy, Yoji as the HandsomeLech, and Aya as -- albeit not always the ''wise'' one -- the one who tends to exert the most authority in times of uncertainty or disagreement. The roles become even more apparent in ''[[OddlyNamedSequel2ElectricBoogaloo Weiß Kreuz Glühen]]'' with Sena replacing Omi as the sweet, naive one and Aya growing more fully into the role of the wisest and most emotionally balanced one.
48* ''Manga/KOn'' has {{the ditz}}y Yui, {{genki|Girl}} Ritsu, the outstandingly attractive though [[ShrinkingViolet withdrawn]] Mio, and [[{{Ojou}} the very wealthy]] yet warm and friendly Mugi. [[TheSixthRanger Then Azusa joins the club.]]
49* ''Manga/LuckyStar'' brings us two sets of four girls (they were even grouped as such in their ImageSong releases).
50** The first group has the sweet CloudCuckooLander Tsukasa, OtakuSurrogate Konata, {{Moe}} {{Meganekko}} Miyuki, and DeadpanSnarker {{Tsundere}} Kagami.
51** The second group has [[CheerfulChild cheerful]] ill girl Yutaka, [[TheQuietOne the quiet]] Minami, CosplayOtakuGirl Patricia, and the most otaku of them all, YuriFan Hiyori.
52*** In the manga, the second group is in fact a three-group. Patricia does not become affiliated with Yutaka in any way until volume 7, and is just a minor recurring character, appearing only in {{Omake}} until that point; she joined the group much earlier in the anime thanks to becoming an AscendedExtra.
53* ''Anime/MagicalPokaan'''s four girls. Yuuma is the sweet and naive mage, Liru the tomboyish werewolf, the vain vampiress Pachira, and the calm observer android Aiko.
54* PlayedWith in ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' with the pro hero team Wild, Wild Pussycats. There's TheDitz Ragdoll, the sexy one Pixie Bob, the TeamMom Mandalay, and the "tomboy" Tiger who's biologically female but had a sex change in Thailand a long time ago and is, for all intents and purposes, a tall, muscular man.
55* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' has the Konoha kunoichi: Sakura Haruno (ambitious and short-tempered, used to be shy), Ino Yamanaka (elegant and confident), Hinata Hyuga (shy and gentle), Tenten (tomboyish and fierce).
56* ''Anime/NatsuiroKiseki'''s main four childhood friends. The stubborn and [[{{Tomboy}} tomboyish]] Natsumi, the realist and mature Saki, the [[GenkiGirl hyperactive]] and childish Yuka, and the laid-back and [[TheQuietOne quiet]] Rinko.
57* ''Anime/PrettyCure'' has teams that are composed of four girls.
58** ''Anime/FreshPrettyCure'': [[GenkiGirl excitable]] Love/Cure Peach, down-to-earth Miki/Cure Berry, [[ShrinkingViolet introverted]] Inori/Cure Pine, and misunderstood yet tranquil [[HeelFaceTurn former villain]] Setsuna/Cure Passion.
59** ''Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure'': Shy Tsubomi/Cure Blossom, excitable Erika/Cure Marine, friendly Itsuki/Cure Sunshine, and wistful Yuri/Cure Moonlight.
60** ''Anime/DokiDokiPrecure'' pre-[[TheSixthRanger Aguri]]; lovable Mana/Cure Heart, smart Rikka/Cure Diamond, innocent Alice/Cure Rosetta, and stern Makoto/Cure Sword.
61** ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure'' has excitable Megumi/Cure Lovely, naive Hime/Cure Princess, friendly Yuko/Cure Honey, and former loner Iona/Cure Fortune.
62** ''Anime/GoPrincessPrettyCure'': GenkiGirl Haruka/Cure Flora, wise Minami/Cure Mermaid, stylish Kirara/Cure Twinkle, and sheltered Towa/Cure Scarlet.
63** ''Anime/StarTwinklePrettyCure pre-[[TheSixthRanger Yuni]]; curious Hikaru/Cure Star, innocent Lala/Cure Milky, TeamMom Elena/Cure Soleil, and graceful Madoka/Cure Selene.
64** ''Anime/HealinGoodPrettyCure'': Gentle Nodoka/Cure Grace, smart Chiyu/Cure Fontaine, genki Hinata/Cure Sparkle, and naive Asumi/Cure Earth.
65** ''Anime/TropicalRougePrettyCure'' pre-[[TheSixthRanger Laura]]; genki Manatsu/Cure Summer, shy Sango/Cure Coral, smart Minori/Cure Papaya, and HotBlooded Asuka/Cure Flamingo.
66** ''Anime/DeliciousPartyPrettyCure'': Naive Yui/Cure Precious, aloof Kokone/Cure Spicy, genki Ran/Cure Yum-Yum, and wise Amane/Cure Finale.
67** ''Anime/HirogaruSkyPrettyCure'': pre-[[TheSixthRanger Ellee]]; HotBlooded Sora/Cure Sky, gentle Mashiro/Cure Prism, smart Tsubasa/Cure Wing, and TeamMom Ageha/Cure Butterfly.
68* ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'''s four main Puella Magi: Madoka (sweet, idealistic, naïve), Sayaka (tomboyish, justice-obsessed, romance-oriented), Kyoko (cynical, ambitious, a {{Ladette}}) and Homura (calm, experienced, smart). Mami initially played the role of the [[CoolBigSis wise, experienced one]] as well, before [[spoiler:dying gruesomely]].
69* ''Anime/RODTheTV'' plays with this. (See page image.) Broadly speaking, Anita is a cute BrattyHalfPint, Maggie a GentleGiant, Michelle ObliviouslyBeautiful, and Nenene the TeamMom. Past this point, though, the traits start being sorted out somewhat differently - Anita tends towards being a pragmatist when Michelle is TheDitz, and Maggie has more of a SugarAndIcePersonality while Nenene takes on the role of DeadpanSnarker.
70* ''Franchise/SailorMoon''.
71** Ami/Mercury is The Smart One and TheQuietOne, Rei/Mars is the {{Ojou}} and the DeadpanSnarker, Makoto/Jupiter is The Tomboy (in the anime) and the TeamMom (in the manga), and Minako/Venus combines The Sexy One and TheDitz.
72** And so do the four Outer Senshi: Setsuna/Pluto is the TeamMom, Michiru/Neptune is TheQuietOne and the {{Ojou}}, Haruka/Uranus is The Tomboy and the DeadpanSnarker, and Hotaru/Saturn is TheCutie.
73** Early in the series, Usagi is the sweet-naive one, Naru is the sensible, admirable one, Kuri is the tomboyish one, and Yumiko is the pretty, feminine one.
74* In ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'', Chibodee Crocket's "Angels" is a four girl ensemble. Shirley is the TeamMom, Cath is TheQuietOne, Janet is the GenkiGirl and Bunny is both a {{Meganekko}} and TheDitz (though she tries to do things right).
75** [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny Athrun's]] harem also count. Cagalli is the serious one, Meer is ''definitely'' the [[MsFanservice sexy one]], Lunamaria is the GenkiGirl and her sister Meyrin is TheQuietOne.
76** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'''s BridgeBunnies in season 2. Sumeragi is the TeamMom, Feldt is TheQuietOne, Mileina is the GenkiGirl and Marie [[spoiler: aka Souma]] is the friendly one.
77* ''Manga/SchoolLive'' has one consisting of the [[KiddieKid immature]] GenkiGirl Yuki, the ActionGirl Kurumi, the distant {{bookworm}} Miki, and the TeamMom Yuuri.
78* ''Manga/SchoolRumble'''s primary cast locks up. Innocent and naive Tenma, tomboyish Mikoto, the {{Ojou}} Eri, and Akira, the silent, snarky observer.
79* ''S.S. Astro'' has TheDitz Izumi, {{tomboy}}ish Setsuna, Girly girlish Yuko, and mature(?) Kaname.
80* ''Anime/TanteiOperaMilkyHolmes'': Has TheDitz Sherlock/Sheryl, {{Bokukko}} Nero, CloudCuckooLander Cordelia and the ShrinkingViolet Hercule. Also G4 has {{Jerkass}} Kokoro, HugeSchoolgirl Tsugiko, TheStoic Saku and the polite [[TapOnTheHead Karate-chopping]] Hirano.
81* ''Anime/RedGarden'' has the [[ShrinkingViolet sweet and shy]] Rose, the {{tomboy}}ish Claire, the rich and fashionable Rachel, and the [[{{Ojou}} also rich but more reserved]] Kate.
82* Lum, Oyuki, Benten, and Ran in ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'', although the trope is played with. Lum is the pretty one, Benten is the tomboy, Oyuki is the mature admirable one, but Ran only ''seems'' the ditzy/naive one at first sight but she's actually CuteAndPsycho and a BitchInSheepsClothing.
83* ''Manga/YuruYuri'' has Akari (TheDitz), Yui (DeadpanSnarker), Kyouko (TheLeader), and Chinatsu, who has the most obvious desires toward [[LesYay another classmate.]] There's also an ensemble of four student council members, composed of three tsunderes and a ShipperOnDeck.
84[[/folder]]
85
86[[folder:Comic Books]]
87* In ''ComicBook/JetDream'', Jet is the leader. Petite is the sexy (stereotypically French) one. Marlene is the big girl who can out-wrestle most men, and Ting-a-Ling is the sweet, naive one.
88* [[SociallyAwkwardHero Riley]], [[AlphaBitch Merissa]], [[AsianAndNerdy Lona]], and [[{{Tomboy}} Ren]], in ComicBook/TheNewYorkFour.
89* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1987'': During the arc that results in Diana's banishment from Olympus and return as Wonder Woman the kind but pragmatic ContinuitySnarl/DonnaTroy, brash and impulsive ComicBook/{{Artemis}}, tomboyish and excitable [[ComicBook/WonderGirl Cassie]], and clever but idealistic Georgia team up to take down an evil supercomputer George came accross. George is quite shocked at just how dangerously impulsive Artemis is despite being a superhero and Donna acts as the [[BigBrotherMentor Big Sister Mentor]] to the group.
90* "The Four Marys" from ''Bunty.'' Sensitive violinist Mary Cotter tends to be the sweet one, {{Passionate Sports Girl}} Mary Field is the tomboyish one, aristocratic activist Mary Radleigh tends is the somewhat wild risk taker while working class scholarship girl Mary Simpson is the most sensible of the group.
91[[/folder]]
92
93[[folder:Fan Works]]
94* The LDD-fanfic ''Fanfic/BridgeToTerabithia2TheLastTime'' does this in the second half of the story, where Jess and Leslie, both teenagers, ends up furthering their studies in California and forming a clique with a bunch of new characters. With Leslie Burke as the TeamMom, Amelia Edmunds who fits the ReallyGetsAround criteria, Sally Atkins the TokenLesbian who is the tomboyish snarker, and naive valley girl Caitlyn Freece as TheDitz.
95* The ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' fic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5055274/1/The-Graduation-Class The Graduation Class]]'' covers four mature entrants through their training to become full Assassins. The four women candidates fill these four niches: Johaana Smith-Rhodes is the pretty ditz, Alice Band the mannish rather butch one, Emmanuelle Lapoignard les Deux-Epees is the one who's been around the block a few times (Alice snarkily sums the three up as ''the virgin, the dyke and the nymphomaniac. What a trio we make.'') They are bonded together by the older Team Mum type, Joan Sanderson-Reeves.
96* In ''FanFic/HorseshoesAndHandGrenades'', the Kamen Rider Club Girls consist of LovableAlphaBitch Miu Kazashiro, GenkiGirl and {{Otaku}} Yuki Jojima, PerkyGoth Tomoko Nozama and CoolBigSis Erin Suda. Its side story ''Month of Sundays'' has CameraFiend Mari Yamamoto, PomPomGirl Jun Shigeno, HugeSchoolgirl Rumi Egawa and Yayoi Tokuda bringing up the rear as the Knowledge Broker.
97* In ''Power Rangers: Shuriken Force'', the four rangers fit this. Sweet and shy Kit, sad and cynical Ann, angry and outspoken Lila, girly and cheerful Zara. There's a fifth ranger, but he's TheOneGuy on the team.
98* In ''Fanfic/TheStoryOfApolloDaphneAndLucaAnItalianTragedy'' we have brash and outspoken [[FieryRedhead Giulia]] as the tomboyish one, sweet and romantic [[TheIngenue Rosa]] as the naive one, snarky and introverted [[SugarAndIcePersonality Bianca]] as the aloof/mysterious one and [[SensitiveArtist Caterina]] as the motherly/admirable one.
99[[/folder]]
100
101[[folder:Film -- Animated]]
102* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', Mei is the naive one, Miriam is the TeamMom, Priya is the tomboyish one, and Abby is the pretty one.
103[[/folder]]
104
105[[folder:Film -- Live-Action]]
106* ''Film/AliAndRatuRatuQueens'': The Queens, a group of old friends on the cusp of opening their own restaurant:
107** Party is the admirable, motherly one; she's easily the most normal of the four of them and does the most connecting with Mia.
108** Chinta is the pretty one; she's a Granola Girl with a storied romantic and sexual history.
109** Ajeng is the tomboyish one; she's brash, tough, and dresses the most masculine.
110** Biyah is the funny one; she has a loud sense of humor and the most physical comedy of the four.
111* The four girl coven in ''Film/TheCraft'': Sarah, the wise one; Nancy, the DeadpanSnarker {{Goth}} who doesn't care what other people think of her; Bonnie, who becomes increasingly image-obsessed and vain; and Rochelle, the sweet, quiet one (and TokenMinority) who just wants the AlphaBitch to stop her racist taunts.
112* The four main characters of ''Film/NowAndThen'': Roberta is the tomboy, Teeny the diva, Chrissy the sweet naive one and Samantha the observer.
113* ''Film/HighSchoolMusical'' has [[ShrinkingViolet Kelsi]] as the sweet one, [[ControlFreak Taylor]] as the aggressive, snarky one, [[RichBitch Sharpay]] as the sexy, fashionable one and [[HiddenDepths Gabriella]] as the thoughtful, wise one.
114* The four girls from the ''WesternAnimation/{{Bratz}}'' movie, Jade (smart), Sasha (sexy), Cloe (sporty), and Yasmine (preppy). The AlphaBitch immediately breaks them up due to her obsession with keeping cliques separate for some reason.
115* The four main friends of ''Film/TheWomen'', an InNameOnly ChickFlick of a play, who are basically the ''Series/SexAndTheCity'' girls if Samantha was replaced by a SassyBlackWoman Lesbian(?).
116* The starring ''Film/{{DEBS}}'' squad is pretty much a textbook case with promiscuous Dominique, naive Janet, obsessive Max and self searching Amy.
117* In ''Film/JohnTuckerMustDie'' you have the admirable Kate, sexy cheerleader Heather, mannish GoGetterGirl Carrie and ditzy GranolaGirl Beth.
118* The 50s film ''Film/SoYoungSoBad'' gives us Jane as the innocent, childish MoralityPet. Loretta the wannabe seductress is the pretty one. Jackie the AmbiguouslyGay tough girl as the mannish one. Social worker Ruth is the TeamMom.
119* The 1989 cult classic ''Film/{{Heathers}}'' has a clique of this, with "Mythic Bitch" Heather Chandler (sexy), head cheerleader Heather [=McNamara=] (sweet), bookworm [[RuleOfThree Heather Duke]] (snarky), and the clique's newcomer [[OddNameOut Veronica Sawyer]] (wise).
120* The SpiritualSuccessor to the above film, ''Film/MeanGirls'', plays with this trope. Cady Heron, the main character and narrator of the film, is undoubtedly the admirable one/TeamMom, as she tries to help the other girls and make things right once things get out of control. Karen is the [[TheDitz Ditz]] with very little actual meanness in her body--the sweet-naive one. Regina could fit into either category of the tomboyish one or the sexy one, being a very aggressive, dominant DeadpanSnarker but also the VanityIsFeminine and ReallyGetsAround type. Regina gradually loses her overt femininity, and Gretchen begins filling that role (the sexy/pretty one) as that happens.
121* The 2004 film ''Film/{{Sleepover}}'' has style-savvy [[TheFashionista Fashionista]] Farrah (the pretty/sexy one), sweet, insecure Yancy (the sweet-naïve one), [[TheLeader Leader]] and TeamMom Hannah (the admirable one), and ordinary, somewhat sporty GirlNextDoor Julie (the tomboyish one). Though the roles of Hannah and Julie somewhat overlap; Julie is caring and also tries to be cautious and responsible, while Hannah is outspoken, competitive and reckless in a tomboyish way.
122[[/folder]]
123
124[[folder:Literature]]
125* The ''Literature/AmericanGirl'' books have in Josefina's series the four Montoya sisters. Ana is the oldest and the TeamMom (literally, since their mother is dead and she's been taking over the domestic side of the household herself (and alone until Dolores arrives), plus she's already married with two kids); Francisca is the beautiful, fashionable, rebellious one; Clara is the diligent, prudent, and preachy one; and Josefina is the youngest and the main character, who's chirpy and cheerful and tries to keep the peace between Francesca and Clara when Ana's not around to help.
126* ''American Street'' by Ibi Zoboi focuses on a young Haitian girl who immigrates to Detriot and lives with her aunt and three cousins. Her cousins as a whole are called "The Four Bees": Eldest Chantal is something of the TeamMom and the one who could have gone to an Ivy League had it not been for her mother's health is "Brains", twin Donna is the sexy one who is "Beauty" and dates a drug-dealer who beats her, ButchLesbian twin Pri (TomboyishName for "Princess") is the "Brawn" who constantly combats people, and NaiveEverygirl and NiceGirl Fabioula is a good student who is trying to navigate the dysfunction of her new surroundings and American culture while holding on to her Haitian values and spirituality while questioning the actions of her family and circumstances is "Brave".
127* ''Literature/TheAnderssons'' by Solveig Olsson-Hultgren follows this trope with the four original Andersson sisters. Elin is the most "mannish" one, who used to have a tough job at a paper mill. Mandi is the sweet and naive one, who ends up in a bad marriage. Ida Sofia is TheSmartGal and the BookWorm. Greta is the sexy one, who works within fashion.
128* ''Literature/AreYouThereGodItsMeMargaret'' has the "Four Pre-Teen Sensations" -- Gretchen is the somewhat mannish one, Janie is shy and sweet, Nancy is very boy-crazy, and Margaret is the narrator who sees everything.
129* The original four members of ''Literature/TheBabySittersClub'': Kristy is known for her leadership skills and great ideas, which along with her outgoing nature make her a good softball coach. Mary Anne is good at being organized but she has a sensitive and shy nature. Claudia is a passionate artist and is known for her creativity and fashion sense as well as being boy-crazy. Last of all there is Stacey who is like Claudia but a more sophisticated math genius who is looked up to because she's from New York.
130* The ''Literature/ChaletSchool'' has the Quartet in the early books. Joey is the tomboy and the leader, Simone is the temperamental ClingyJealousGirl, Frieda is the TeamMom and the best-behaved, and Marie is the pretty one.
131* In ''Literature/TheClique'', the titular group initially consists of PassionateSportsGirl Kristen, intimidatingly beautiful Alicia, goofy Dylan, and the leader of the group, Massie.
132* J. Courtney Sullivan's novel ''Commencement,'' about a group of Smith students who become friends after sharing a floor their freshmen year, has: Celia, who probably fulfills the role of the "sexy one" as she is a HardDrinkingPartyGirl who ReallyGetsAround, even though she's not the prettiest of the group; Bree, who is the "sweet naive one" - she starts out as an [[HighSchoolSweethearts engaged]] SouthernBelle; Sally, a NeatFreak who serves as the TeamMom; and April, who fits the role of the "tomboy" as a StrawFeminist, GranolaGirl and DeadpanSnarker.
133* ''Literature/TheCompleteWritersGuideToHeroesAndHeroines'' details different types of heroines generally found in the {{romance}} genre. The three closest to this trope are Spunky Kid / Boss / Seductress / Nurturer.
134* ''Literature/FortyFiveMasterCharacters'' is a [[BooksOnTrope Book on Trope]] that has eights types of heroines, and while different combinations could work, in general the Persephone / Artemis / Aphrodite / Hera types fit for those of this trope.
135* In ''Literature/TheGallagherGirls'' series, there's Cammie, Liz, Bex, and Macey. The latter three fill out the roles for BeautyBrainsAndBrawn (Macey is the beauty, Liz is the brains, and Bex is the brawn), while Cammie is more of a GirlNextDoor.
136* Literature/TheBabySittersClub-esque ''Literature/GirlTalk'' books had Sabrina, the ditzy, bubbly everygirl; Katie, the perfect, blonde-haired, blue-eyed athlete; Allison, the quiet, bookish TokenMinority; and Randy, the [[{{Badbutt}} "cool"]] one, who was from New York and had a skateboard and played the drums and [[HumorDissonance was probably intended to be]] the DeadpanSnarker.
137* The major girls in Dumbledore's Army in ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix'': Hermione (admirable and wise), Ginny (tomboy snarker), Cho Chang (boy-crazy pretty one), and Luna (CloudCuckooLander ditz/sweet).
138* This trope applies to the four friends in ''Literature/{{The Hike|2023}}'', who are all different in terms of personality and lifestyle, but still get along.
139** Maggie is the sweet, introverted artist who is the most openly nervous about the hike and gets anxious easily.
140** Rebellious, impulsive and hard-partying rock star Joni is the more tomboyish one out of the group.
141** Helena is the pretty and glamorous one, who likes the comfortable familiarity of her urban lifestyle, has lots of casual dates and hook-ups, and is never without lipstick even while hiking up a mountain.
142** Liz is the wise, motherly one of the group; she's a doctor and the one who organised the hike. She feels a sense of responsibility towards the others, is usually the one takes charge and tries to get them all to stick to the plan.
143* ''Literature/JamesAndTheGiantPeach'' has James's four female companions: the Ladybug (TeamMom), [[ActionGirl the Spider]] (mannish), the Glowworm with her beautiful glow (pretty), and [[TheQuietOne the Silkworm]] (childish).
144* ''Literature/LittleWomen'' is the TropeCodifier: Meg, the oldest, is [[TeamMom the lecturer and mature example-setter]] who wants a husband and family (admirable); Jo is the tomboy who wants a career, fame, and fortune; Beth is the shy, gentle and musical one who wants to stay with her family (sweet); Amy is the vain and spoiled but later artistic and flirty young lady who wants to marry someone with money (pretty).
145* ''Literature/MatesDatesSeries'': [[DudeMagnet Nesta]] is the pretty/sexy one, [[GranolaGirl Izzie]] is the wise one, [[NiceGirl Lucy]] is the sweet one, and [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak TJ]] is the smart, tomboyish one.
146* The Creator/VCAndrews miniseries, ''Literature/{{Orphans}}'':
147** Butterfly: Naive, sweet, childlike.
148** Brooke: Mannish (not really, but she is a tomboy)
149** Raven: Sexy one.
150** Crystal: Team Mom, responsible.
151* ''Literature/ThePoisonwoodBible'' has the Price sisters: Rachel, the pretty one and the RichBitch [[spoiler:who becomes "the sexy one" who ReallyGetsAround as she grows up]]; Leah, the wise and motherly one; Adah, the intellectual and DeadpanSnarker; and Ruth May, the sweet, naive baby of the family and TheHeart. [[spoiler:This book being [[BlackAndGrayMorality the kind of book it is]], Ruth May, naturally, gets killed off.]]
152* ''Literature/PrettyLittleLiars'': Emily is the sweet and sporty one, Hanna is glamorous and popular, Aria's the artistic hipster DeadpanSnarker, and Spencer sort of replaces "wise" with "perfectionist". They each represent Aspects of Ali's personality.
153* ''Literature/TheRedTent'' features Leah the TeamMom and domestic goddess; Rachel the beauty who compensates for her infertility by becoming a midwife; Zilpah the self-proclaimed priestess/storyteller who DoesNotLikeMen, and Bilhah the [[NiceGuy sweet]], [[TheQuietOne quiet]] [[TheEmpath empath]].
154* ''Literature/TheSisterhoodOfTheTravelingPants'' has Lena, who is a shy, introspective aspiring artist, Bridget, who is daring and courageous with gorgeous blond hair, Carmen, who is the organized one and the "glue" keeping the Sisterhood together, and Tibby, who is known as the rebel and disdainful one.
155* Marylin Kaye's ''Sisters'' series: Activist Lydia is the TeamMom figure, Cassie is the fashionista, Daphne is the shy and sweet one, Phoebe is the tomboy.
156* The short-lived 1990s YA series ''Sleepover Friends'' had Kate (tomboy snarker), Stephanie (fashionable and slightly snobby), Patti (shy sweet one), and Lauren (sensible and level-headed narrator).
157* In ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', Oberyn Martell's four adult daughters are known as the Sand Snakes and fulfil these roles in a more [[{{BadassFamily}} dangerous variation.]] Obara is a butch ActionGirl with a penchant for spears (tomboy); Nymeria is a beautiful seductress (sexy); Tyene is a FakeCutie, outwardly a sweet, pious girl in training to be a priestess and secretly a MasterPoisoner ("sweet"). Their fourth sister Sarella (wise) is not introduced with the others, but there are strong hints that she is DisguisedInDrag as brainy, guileful master archer "[[SdrawkcabName Alleras]] the Sphinx" in order to infiltrate the OneGenderSchool where Maesters are trained.
158** Without Sarella, the fourth spot is filled by their cousin Arianne, who while very sexy is a budding politician and fills the role of the narrator/TeamMom.
159* The four Cullen women of ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' are the snarky Bella, childish pixie-like Alice, beautiful Rosalie, and motherly Esme.
160* Literature/TheUltraViolets are composed of team leader Iris, Cheri, Scarlet, and Opaline.
161[[/folder]]
162
163[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
164* ''Series/TheAmandaShow'' had a skit called The Girls' Room. It had glamourous, popularity-obsessed AlphaBitch Amber (a sexy one), tough, intimidating [[SassyBlackWoman Sassy Black Girl]] Sheila (a tomboyish one), sweet-natured but completely airheaded [[TheDitz Ditz]] Debbie (a sweet-naive one), and relatively nice and down-to-earth SouthernBelle Tammy (an admirable one).
165* ''Series/BeverlyHills90210'': Annie is the sweet naive girl, Silver is the DeadpanSnarker, Adrianna is the one obsessed with glamour and fame, and Naomi serves as the mother figure for the group.
166* In the original ''Series/BeverlyHills'', Donna was the sweet naive one, Brenda was the DeadpanSnarker, Kelly was the pretty one, and Andrea was the smart one.
167* The four students on ''Series/{{Bunheads}}''. The show hasn't been on long enough to tell but so far Boo is the sweet one, Sasha is the glamorous IceQueen, Melanie has elements of being TheDitz, and Ginny is the smart one.
168* Although not all four ''Series/{{Charmed|1998}}'' Ones were on the show at he same time (since Prue [[ActorLeavesCharacterDies died]] before Paige was introduced), the sisters still fit this trope. Paige was TheDitz, Piper was the DeadpanSnarker, Phoebe was the [[InformedAttractiveness sexy one]], and Prue was the wise CoolBigSis. Before Paige, Phoebe played a combination of the sexy one and The Ditz. Once Prue passed away, Piper took on her role as the wise Cool Big Sis but still had her Deadpan Snarker traits in tact.
169* ''Series/DerryGirls'': The main cast consists of this plus TheOneGuy James.
170** There's {{Cloudcuckoolander}} Orla (the naive one), who's too out of it to ever bother anyone most of the time.
171** Lesbian Clare (the snarky, smart one), who flip-flops between being the OnlySaneMan and a NervousWreck
172** The (allegedly) promiscuous HardDrinkingPartyGirl Michelle (the sexy one), who's always talking about sex and boys.
173** The narrator Erin (the admirable one), who thinks of herself as cultured, WiseBeyondHerYears writer, though [[NotSoAboveItAll she's just as prone to mistakes and tomfoolery]] as everyone else. Although cousins Erin and Orla are approximately the same age, they interact as if Orla was the AnnoyingYoungerSibling.
174* ''Series/DesigningWomen'': Charlene, Suzanne, Mary Jo, & Julia (owns the business they all work for)
175* ''Series/DesperateHousewives'': Susan (ditz), Lynette (snarker), Gabrielle (sexy), and Bree (Team Mom)
176* ''Series/DoctorWho'': The first four companions of the new series fit this trope. Rose Tyler is sweet and naive (although she becomes wiser as the series progresses), Martha Jones is wise, smart and sensible, Donna Noble is feisty and outspoken, and Amy Pond, who attempts to seduce the Doctor, is the sexy one.
177* ''Series/TheFactsOfLife'': Blair (glamour-obsessed pretty one), Jo (tomboyish, straight-laced one), Tootie (sweet-naïve, one) & Natalie (quirky, odd one) (students/roommates).
178* ''Series/GilmoreGirls'' uncomfortably fits protagonist Rory into this kind of clique in her high-school years. Paris is the DeadpanSnarker, Louise the sexy ReallyGetsAround type, Madeline is TheDitz and Rory is the admirable narrator.
179* ''Series/{{Girlfriends|2000}}'': Joan Clayton (smart, straight-laced one), Antoinette 'Toni' Garrett (glamour-obsessed pretty one), Maya Wilkes (streetsmart one) & Lynn Searcy (quirky, odd one) (students/roommates).
180* The girls on, well, ''Series/{{Girls}}''. Marnie is the level-headed, smart one, Jessa is the sexy free spirit, Shoshanna is the naive [[TheDitz ditz]], and Hannah is the lazy snarker.
181* ''Girls on Top'' (Creator/Channel4's DistaffCounterpart to ''Series/TheYoungOnes''): Jennifer is TheDitz (bordering on CloudCuckooLander), Amanda is a StrawFeminist, Candice ReallyGetsAround, and Shelley takes charge... not in a TeamMom way, but in a "I'm the only one who can remotely afford the rent here, so do as I say or else I'll leave" way.
182* ''Series/TheGoldenGirls'': Rose is the ditz, Blanche is the slut, Dorothy is the snarker, and Sophia (Dorothy's mother) the Team Mom. Despite age, Sophia is kind of more the snarker and Dorothy is more the level-headed "mother" type.
183* ''Series/GossipGirl'' has Serena (the sexy, free-spirited one), Blair (acts as overseer if only to re-enforce her image as Queen Bee), Vanessa (the bitter cynic) and Jenny (while not TheDitz in the strictest sense, she is incredibly naive and easily led at times)
184* ''Series/LivingSingle'': Synclaire, Regine, Max, & Khadijah (owns the apartment).
185* ''Series/OrphanBlack'' has two sets.
186** The main clone quartet: Sarah is the RebelliousSpirit (tomboy), Alison is the glamorous and cultured soccer mom (feminine), Cosima is the resident scientist and OnlySaneMan (intelligent), and Helena is [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} mostly stuck in her own world]] but is nonetheless a loyal sister ([[PsychopathicManChild a rather dark version of the sweet one]]).
187** The later [[InSeriesNickname Clone Club]] additions: Krystal is TheFashionista ValleyGirl (the sexy ''[[MsFanservice and]]'' pretty one), Charlotte is the good-mannered TagalongKid (sweet one), M.K. is the elusive hacker (intelligent), and Tony is the butch one.
188* ''Series/PanAm'': Laura is the sweet, naive one, Maggie is self-righteous and free-spirited, Colette is sexy and romantic and Kate is the independent, TeamMom type (and CoolBigSis to Laura).
189* Played with somewhat on ''Series/PrettyLittleLiars'': Hanna definitely fits the glamor-obsessed role; Emily is sort of mannish, insofar as she is an athlete (and a lesbian, but a rather [[LipstickLesbian feminine]] one), although she is definitely not the DeadpanSnarker of the group; Aria is the sweet one, although not naive; Spencer is definitely the DeadpanSnarker, but she is generally also the one who holds the group together, although more through [[{{Determinator}} sheer determination and iron will]] than by being the TeamMom.
190* ''Series/{{Privileged}}'': Megan (fulfilling the TeamMom role for both the twins and her own sister), Lily (the sexy one, more towards the ReallyGetsAround end of the scale), Rose (the well-meaning but not too bright Ditz) and Sage (the cynic and DeadpanSnarker)
191* The ladies in waiting on ''Series/{{Reign}}'' are four friends. Lola is the strongest one, not afraid of death or speaking out, even to a queen. Greer is ambitious for her family's sake even though she does believe in the power of love. Kenna is a real firecracker which makes her unpredictable and totally captivating. Aylee is the most reserved, acting as the voice of caution out of concern for her friends.
192* [[ScrewedByTheNetwork Short-lived (due to being lost in]] [[Creator/TheCW the merger)]] [[Creator/TheWB WB]] series ''Related'': eldest sister Ginny is the wise one, second-born Ann is the career-focused (least feminine) one, third sister Margie is the flirty one, and Rose is the youngest and most naive.
193* The girls of ''Music/SClub7'' were portrayed this way on their TV show. Hannah was TheDitz, Jo was the mannish one, Rachel was the glamorous one obsessed with her looks, and Tina was the wise one.
194* ''Series/SexAndTheCity'': Charlotte (Idealistic, slightly naive, The "Park Avenue Pollyanna"), Samantha (slutty, cynical), Miranda (Deadpan-snarky, career-focused, less glamourous than her friends), & Carrie (romantic and the {{narrator}} who sees everyone's foibles)
195* The early-to-mid 90's NBC series ''Sisters''. Interestingly, it was the second-''youngest'' sister Georgie who took on the TeamMom role.
196* ''Series/{{Skins}}'' has this with each of their female casts:
197** Though they fit TheThreeFacesOfEve better, the three main girls of the first generation of Skins fit this, too: Michelle is the sexy one, Cassie is TheDitz (technically a DitzyGenius), and Jal combines the DeadpanSnarker and the TeamMom.
198** In the second generation: Effy and Katie split the "sexy" one; Pandora is the sweet, naive one; Naomi is the DeadpanSnarker; and Emily is the wise, nurturing one.
199** The girls of the third generation too: Mini is the sexy one due to her obsession with being pretty; Grace is the sweet and naive one who believes in stories and fairytales; Liv is the closest to the DeadpanSnarker; and Franky is the wise one.
200*** Alternately, Mini is the pretty, naive one; Liv is the "sexy one" since she ReallyGetsAround; Grace is the nurturing TeamMom; and Franky is the mannish one.
201** In the American version, Michelle is the pretty one, Cadie is TheDitz, Tea is the snarky one, and Daisy is the TeamMom.
202* In season seven of ''Series/{{Smallville}}'', with the arrival of [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} Kara]], we have naive ([[spoiler:not so much "behind the scenes"]]) Lana, mannish Lois, sexy Kara and wise Chloe.
203* Series/{{Switch2012}} : Grace as the youngest of the group is ostensibly the identification character. Hannah is the useless Naive one and TheDitz. Stella is the DeadpanSnarker. And Jude ReallyGetsAround.
204* ''Series/{{Victorious}}'': Tori is the main character, the jack-of-all-trades in terms of talent and the most "normal" of the group. Tori's sister Trina is obsessed with fashion and quite ditzy and girly, Cat is childlike and naive, and Jade is the snarky bad girl of the group.
205%%* ''Women's Murder Club''
206* ''Series/Girls5eva'': The modern day lineup of Girls5eva as follows — [[OnlySaneMan Dawn]] (admirable leader), [[TheDitz Summer]] (sweet & naive), [[TheDiva Wickie]] (sexy one), and [[ButchLesbian Gloria]] (snarky tomboy).
207[[/folder]]
208
209
210[[folder:Manhwa]]
211* The original girl thief band from ''Western Shotgun'' (or ''Blazin' Barrels'') known as "Gold Romani" includes four members: Amita Crusoe the hot-headed one, Temmy Valentine the mature one, Music/GwenStefani the smart [[{{Meganekko}} bespectacled]] strategist and Rommie D. Con the [[ChildProdigy young]], fearless mechanic. Later they have Goldie Crembell the airhead join the band.
212[[/folder]]
213
214[[folder:Music]]
215* Music/{{SCANDAL|JapaneseBand}} has Haruna, Tomomi, Mami, and Rina. There is frequent overlap in who takes on which kind of role, these being actual people and not fictional characters, after all (for instance, both Haruna and Mami take turns being Team Mom, Tomomi alternates between being The Ditz and being the sexy one, etc.).
216* Nina Simone's ''Four Women'' more or less describe a more mature and tragic Four Girl Ensemble. First there is Aunt Sarah who is [[IronWoobie resilient]] and, perhaps, motherly, then there is Saffronia who may or may not be the naive girl (all we know is that she's bi racial), next there's "[[{{Streetwalker}} Sweet Thing]]" whose "hips invite you" and to conclude there is [[JadeColoredGlasses Peaches]] whose "manner is tough".
217* GirlGroup Little Mix: Perrie is the sweet naive one, Leigh is the DeadpanSnarker, Jesy is the glamorous one, and Jade is the Mother.
218* Kpop group Sistar fit this description. Bora is the sexy one, Soyou is the ditz, Dasom is the DeadpanSnarker and leader Hyorin is the big sister.
219* The "classic" lineup of Music/TheBangles had (comparatively mannish) Michael, (team mom) Vicki, (babyfaced and underestimated) Debbie, and (spotlight stealer) Susanna.
220* Music/SClub7 liked to portray the four girls this way. Jo was the tough LadEtte from Essex. Tina was the bossy, responsible TeamMom. Hannah was the quirky ditz. Rachel was the glamorous beauty who attracted all the boys.
221[[/folder]]
222
223[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
224* The 'Four Horsewomen of NXT' fit into this. {{Wrestling/Bayley}} was the KidAppealCharacter who just wanted to be friends with everyone (childish). {{Wrestling/Charlotte}} was the jacked, arrogant athlete (mannish). Wrestling/SashaBanks was the glamorous rhinestone-loving AlphaBitch (feminine). Wrestling/BeckyLynch meanwhile was the smart, tactical OnlySaneMan (intelligent).
225[[/folder]]
226
227[[folder:Theater]]
228* ''Theatre/{{Hamilton}}'' has this trope in the Schuyler Sisters Peggy (sweet, from what we see), Angelica (snarky and tough), and Eliza (motherly), with Maria Reynolds (sexy) completing the group.
229* ''Theatre/{{In The Heights}}'' has bright Stanford student Nina, sexy Vanessa who is constantly being pursued by the boys in the barrio, brassy and outspoken Daniela, and ditzy, lovable Carla.
230* ''OTMA'', a play that hypothetically explores the [[RulingFamilyMassacre last days]] of the real daughters of [[UsefulNotes/RomanovsAndRevolutions Nicholas II]], has the intelligent Olga, haughty Tatiana, sweet Marie, and mischievous tomboy Anastasia.
231* The titular ''Theatre/MarvelousWonderettes'' are bossy and anxious Missy, flirtatious Cindy Lou, silly and childlike Suzy, and athletic Betty Jean.
232[[/folder]]
233
234[[folder:Video Games]]
235* The nurses in the Sega brain trainer ''Brain Assist'' seem to have this dynamic.
236* The four heroines of ''Videogame/{{Crystar}}'': Rei (the leader) is a CoolBigSis admired by the others, Kokoro is sexy and flirty, Sen is serious and tomboyish, and Nanana is the sweet-naive [[TheDitz ditz]].
237* ''Franchise/DragonAge'':
238** Normally, the three female party members in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' comprise TheHecateSisters ensemble, [[spoiler:but with the {{DLC}}-only character Shale they become this]]: Leliana (sweet, naive), [[spoiler:Shale (mannish snarker)]], Morrigan (sexy, cynical), and Wynne (wise, motherly).
239** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'', assuming female Hawke: Merrill is the naive one, Aveline is mannish in the extreme, Isabela is over-the-top in her sexuality, and Hawke is the OnlySaneWoman.
240* In the online game ''Disney City Girl/City Girl Life'', the PlayerCharacter is a member of one of these, with the other three girls being her college friends who drop by frequently. [[LovableAlphaBitch Veronica aka V]] is the sexy one, [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold Jenna]] is the GenkiGirl, [[HelloAttorney Olivia]] is the motherly and mature one, and since the PC is a CountryMouse she plays the role of the naive one.
241* ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublicIITheSithLords'' (assuming you mod it to get the Handmaiden with a female player) has Visas (naiive), Mira (cynical/sexy), the Handmaiden (mannish), and the player (leader).
242** Kreia could also fill the 'leader' mold, but [[ZenSurvivor in an extremely dark, twisted way]] as she manipulates the entire party to stick together.
243* Female members of your squad in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'' include Tali (Not really naive, but quite sweet), Jack (very mannish), Miranda (sexy, cynical), and Samara (wise, motherly). The addition of Liara as a GuestStarPartyMember and Kasumi in DLC mods throws off the dynamic a bit.
244** Samara doesn't exactly fit the motherly part of that however, her EstablishingCharacterMoment is coldly killing an opponent who was already down, and she threatens to murder the PlayerCharacter (among other people) several times over the course of the game. She's seen quite a bit, being an [[TimeAbyss asari]], so she's plenty wise. Just not very motherly.
245* ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'':
246** ''VideoGame/Persona4''[='s=] female party members are Yukiko (naive and sweet, though arguably more of a GeniusDitz), Chie (a definite {{Tomboy}}), Rise (sexy and outgoing) and [[spoiler:Naoto]] (the smartest member and also TheComicallySerious).
247** In ''VideoGame/Persona5'', your female party members consist of four girls: Haru (sweet), Ann (sexy), Makoto (TeamMom), and Futaba (TankTopTomboy hacker). The first three to join are also BlondeBrunetteRedhead -- Ann, Makoto, and Futaba respectively.
248* ''VideoGame/RivieraThePromisedLand'' and its four Sprite heroines: Fia as TeamMom, Lina as the cute GenkiGirl, Cierra as the ditzy but sexy older sister, and Serene as the {{Tomboy}}.
249* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'': Princess Peach is the naive one, being a total airhead who's repeatedly kidnapped, Princess Daisy is the tomboy, being gaming's de facto TomboyPrincess, Rosalina is the smart one, being aloof and motherly, and Pauline is the sexy one, being a business-savvy mayor and à singer who's a lot made-up.
250* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
251** ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
252*** A sidequest involves a mother asking the party to find her four daughters within the city. The daughters are an obvious ShoutOut to the girls either from ''Literature/LittleWomen'' or perhaps ''Anime/BurstAngel'' - right down to their names and personalities (Jo will be impressed that you could tell she was a girl, regardless of if you really ''could'').
253*** The female party members fit this trope as well; Raine is the wise motherly one, Colette is the sweet one, Sheena is the sexy one and Presea (despite having hints of TokenMiniMoe) is the tough one.
254** ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia'''s female party counts: Estelle (motherly), Rita (tomboyish), Judith (sexy), and Patty (childish).
255* In ''VideoGame/UntilDawn'', the four female characters fit this: Jess (sex-crazed), Emily (snarky), Ashley (naive) and Sam (admirable).
256[[/folder]]
257
258[[folder:Visual Novels]]
259* The employees at the diner (minus Veronica) in ''VisualNovel/DaughterForDessert'': Lily is the sweet girl, Amanda is the snarky girl, Kathy is the sexy girl, and Heidi is the mature girl.
260* ''VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub'': Monika is the sexy one, being the most sociable and detail-oriented, Sayori is the naïve one, repeatedly being [[TheDitz ditzy]] and not understanding what the others are talking about, Yuri is the smart one, being incredibly invested in her books and poetry skills, and Natsuki is the tomboy, being a {{tsundere}} who tends to act very vulgar. Though, starting with [[spoiler:Sayori's suicide]], the roles between Monika, Sayori, and Yuri tend to flip-flop.
261* The four girls who [[spoiler:were chosen as]] the protagonist's sexual partners in ''VisualNovel/DoubleHomework'' form this: Amy is the sweet girl, Morgan is the snarky girl, Lauren is the sexy girl, and Rachel is the mature girl.
262* In [=ClockUp=]'s Team Anise's ''Eroge! ~Sex and Games Make Sexy Games~'', we have Nene (Sweet), Iori (Smart), Momoka (Sexy), and Kisara (Snarky).
263* In [=ClockUp=]'s ''Euphoria'', we have the four [[spoiler: remaining]] female students, not counting the teacher: Rika (Sweet), Rinne (Smart), Kanae (Sexy), and Nemu (Snarky). [[spoiler: In the BettyAndVeronicaSwitch during the True Ending route, we also switch those roles between Nemu and Kanae.]]
264* In [=ClockUp=]'s ''ESEX Shikorsky: INTERNEET Security Cloud 2017'', we have Sharu (Sweet), Misesu (Sexy), Gachako (Snarky), and Amunesu (Smart).
265* For ''VisualNovel/{{Melody}}'', this can apply to all of the girls that [[spoiler:the protagonist can end up with]] (Sophia and Xianne don’t count): Becca is the sweet girl, Melody is the snarky girl, Isabella is the sexy girl, and Amy is the mature girl.
266[[/folder]]
267
268[[folder:Web Animation]]
269* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner's'' ''WebAnimation/TeenGirlSquad'' has Cheerleader as the pretty one (she's obsessed with fashion and boys), So and So as the smart one (she's a book-smart, self-proclaimed "[[GoGetterGirl Overachiever Bandit]]"), What's Her Face as the tomboy (she's always seen in a t-shirt and baggy jeans), and The Ugly One as the naïve one (she's a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who is quick to follow any of Cheerleader's ridiculous ideas, such as [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext jumping into a lion's mouth for a Secret Santa exchange]], for the sake of popularity). The roles are blurred a bit, since [[OnlySaneMan What's Her Face]] tends to have more common sense than So and So (or any of the other girls, for that matter).
270* ''Liv World'' features a Brainy Blonde, a clumsy tomboy, a fashion-savvy black girl, and a drama queen (is she hispanic or asian?).
271[[/folder]]
272
273[[folder:Webcomics]]
274* ''Webcomic/DestinyFailsUs'' has Idril as the [[http://destinyfailsus.com/comics/40/#.T74ENMWFnCE geeky, clumsy]] one. Atali as the [[http://destinyfailsus.com/comics/5#comic naïve, kind one]]. Alaska as the [[http://destinyfailsus.com/comics/47#comic stalker,]] obsessive one. And Lily as the pretty, [[http://destinyfailsus.com/comics/4/#.T74D-sWFnCE always-on-her-phone one.]]
275* The main cast of ''Webcomic/M9Girls'': Any is the quiet one and TeamMom, Pato is the DeadpanSnarker, Clau is the GenkiGirl and Karla is the sexy and [[ObfuscatingStupidity not so dumb]] one.
276* ''Webcomic/{{MYth}} features Aphrodite as the pretty/sexy one, Artemis as the {{Tomboy}} one, Persephone as the childish {{Ingenue}} and Athena as the smart/TeamMom one.
277* ''Webcomic/ZooLaLa'' features one of these with Angel as the innocent, naive one, Brooklyn as the flirt, Jackie as the tomboy, and Marcie as the smart one.
278[[/folder]]
279
280[[folder:Web Original]]
281* ''WebVideo/TheGumdrops'': Sweet but naïve Laura, tough and snarky Roisin, sexy and wild Sadia, mature and responsible Lindsay.
282* ''WebVideo/TheLizzieBennetDiaries'' has Lizzie as the DeadpanSnarker, Jane as the sweet one, Lydia as the sexy one, and Charlotte as the wise one.
283* In ''WebVideo/TheMarchFamilyLetters'', a SettingUpdate of ''Literature/LittleWomen'', Meg is the sensible TeamMom, Jo the DeadpanSnarker, Beth is the sweet/naive one and Amy is the flirty girly girl.
284* The girls of the original Team Kimba in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': Generator as the sweet and naive one, Fey as the sexy one, Phase as the mannish (and how) DeadpanSnarker, and Tennyo as the CoolBigSis type.
285* ''WebVideo/{{Kittisaurus}}'': The four female cats; Chuchu (sweet and childlike, prior to her nasal surgery), Lala (the pretty one liked by all the male cats- except Dodo), TT (the gruff [[ActionGirl action girl]] although she will occasionally slip into the mother role), and Nana who is literally a mother cat and extends this role to the adult cats (namely Lulu) as well as her kittens.
286[[/folder]]
287
288[[folder:Western Animation]]
289* ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'': Cheryl is TheDitz, Pam is the snarky BrawnHilda, Lana is the MsFanservice, and Malory, while not an admirable character, is the oldest and TheLeader.
290* On ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'', whenever Mabel, Candy, Grenda and Wendy interact with or work together, such as in "The Last Mabelcorn", they fit this trope perfectly. Mabel is a very girly, wannabe-[[FilleFatale Fille Fatale]] who loves glitter and cute things (a pretty one), Candy is a mousy ShrinkingViolet (a sweet-naïve one), Grenda is a loud and aggressive BrawnHilda type who loves breaking things (a tomboyish one), and Wendy is the protective older one who acts as a CoolBigSis to the other girls.
291* ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'': Lila is the sweet, innocent one, Helga is the tomboy, Rhonda is the glamour-obsessed pretty one, and Phoebe is the smart one.
292* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'', the band Jem And The Holograms consists of the teenager Kimber, the tomboyish and blunt Aja, the DudeMagnet Jem, and the shy fashion designer Shana. They later get a SixthRanger in Raya. Jem also counts as "dependable" but mostly when she is her alter ego Jerrica, and Kimber is the most prone to love interests.
293* ''WesternAnimation/JosieAndThePussycats'' has this when including Alexandra. Melody is a DumbBlonde, Alexandra is rich and glamorous, and Josie and Valerie kind of trade off the smart and tomboyish roles DependingOnTheWriter.
294* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' has the alicorns (as of season 4 and beyond): Luna (naive), [[spoiler:Twilight Sparkle]] (snarky), Cadence (glamorous), Celestia (Team Mom).
295* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'' have this in episodes where Princess Morbucks appears. Blossom is the smart one, Bubbles the sweetie, Buttercup the tomboy, and Princess the AlphaBitch.
296* ''WesternAnimation/TheProudFamily'' has vain AlphaBitch Lacienega (a sexy one), loud and aggressively flirtacious [[SassyBlackWoman Sassy Black Girl]] Dijonay (a tomboyish one), sweet and impressionable ShrinkingViolet Zoey (a sweet-naive one) who's constantly caving into peer pressure by the aforementioned girls, and Penny, the caring and polite NiceGirl title character who tries to keep the peace.
297* ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' gives us the Ashleys. Blonde leader Ashley A., African-American and glamorous Ashley B., athletic FieryRedhead Ashley Q., and Hispanic and quiet Ashley T.
298* ''WesternAnimation/SkyDancers'' brought us Camille (the creative black girl), Jade (the asian ballerina), Angelica (the tomboy teenie-bopper) and Skyla (the wise platinum-blonde leader of the team).
299* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'':
300** Playing this trope straight, the original Crystal Gems, from when Rose Quartz (Steven's mom) was still alive. Garnet's role was more or less the same as currently - the cool-headed, confident one. However, since Rose took the role of the TeamMom and the mentor, Amethyst and Pearl's roles differ from what we see in the series present They fit, respectively, the childish, naïve one and the smart, elegant one. Note that Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl's core traits remained but their more prominent features shifted to accommodate the fact they now are raising (and protecting) a child.
301** Also played straight with the Great Diamond Authority from when Pink Diamond was still alive. Yellow Diamond is very assertive, strict, and overall, an even mix of the {{Ladette}} (just with less vulgarity, but rude nonetheless) and the PrinceCharming tomboy (mainly towards Blue Diamond). In turn, Blue Diamond herself is much more feminine in [[{{Foil}} contrast ]]to Yellow Diamond. Blue Diamond is also soft-spoken, diplomatic, motherly (towards Pink Diamond), and sociable. White Diamond occupies the role of the reachable{{Leader}}, but in an even more demanding-from-her-subordinates, overachiever flavor. Finally, because she is the youngest of the quartet, Pink Diamond was [[TheDitz clumsy]] in regards to her duties, a goofball, a spoiled brat sometimes, and the TagAlongKid.
302** When Pink Diamond died, CharacterDevelopment kicked in and the Great Diamond Authority stopped fitting this trope and the Diamonds' roles shifted. White Diamond took a level in aloofness and in her god-complex, overcompensating in her search for perfection. Blue retreated from Gem society into a depressed, impulsive, and overly-emotional shell of her former self. Yellow, in turn, became harsher, more hot-heated, more ruthless, and less rational. It's worth noting, Pink Diamond also evolved as a character before dying because she [[spoiler:fell in love with Earth and its freedom and assumed her Rose Quartz persona, thus not really dying]].
303* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'': In the season, ''Pahkitew Island'', on Team Kinosewak: Scarlett (the smart and quiet one), Jasmine (the fearless tomboy), Amy (the [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]] AlphaBitch) and Samey/Sammy (the sweet, shy and naïve one).
304* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'' gives us Musa, Stella, Flora and Tecna working without Bloom temporarily in season 1, giving us a temporary four-girl ensemble. Stella qualifies as the sexy one and TheDitz, Flora is the TeamMom, Musa is the tomboyish one and Tecna is [[TheSmartGuy the smart one]].

308* The four English wives of UsefulNotes/HenryVIII are a downplayed version of this trope, at least in how they're remembered; UsefulNotes/AnneBoleyn wasn't ''quite'' a tomboy, but she was quite fiery and outspoken, UsefulNotes/{{Jane Seymour|Royalty}} was the shy and submissive "good girl", whom Henry was buried next to (sweet), UsefulNotes/CatherineHoward was beheaded for her promiscuity (pretty), and the maternal UsefulNotes/CatherineParr was known for her literacy and education, as well as her influence on the future Queen Elizabeth I (admirable).
