A Classical Element Ensemble is a team or group of people in which each character is associated with one of the classical elements, the classical elements being a specific subset of the Natural Elements, typically composed of fire, water, earth, or air. So the standard ensemble is a team of four with each person aligned with either fire, water, earth, or air.
Thematically, because the classical elements were considered to be the root of creation and matter, having a group reflect it implies that this group is the most central, important, or most powerful out there. From a convenience standpoint, this trope sees a lot of usage because it also gives each member a distinct aesthetic, personality, and role, on top of having baked in interpersonal dynamics to explore. See Four-Temperament Ensemble, Fire/Water Juxtaposition, and Earth/Wind Juxtaposition for more on that. Having the elemental association be to Elemental Powers specifically is one of the most common ways this trope is used. That said, non-powered characters who just have Elemental Motifs are also acceptable.
Expect each member to have Elemental Personalities and be color-coded in line with their elements, with Elemental Eye Colors and Elemental Hair Colors. If the team is mixed gender, it is not unusual for fire to be a man and water to be a woman (often the sole woman), though this is by no means a strict rule.
Besides the standard ensemble, there are two variations, both of which create a Five-Man Band. The Chinese variation follows the Chinese version of the classical elements, which air is not a part of it. Wood and metal are used instead, each with their own associated powers (typically Green Thumb and Extra-ore-dinary) and qualities.
The second variation comes from the fact that though most takes on the classical elements have the usual suspects of fire, water, earth, and air, also include an Element No. 5. What this is exactly depends on which cultural interpretation you follow, but broadly speaking it was thought to be the substance that fills the space outside of the earth and from which the stars and other celestial bodies were created from. This has been translated into the following natural elements (with the most common interpretations of that element attached):
Space: Space Master, Gravity Master
Void: Power of the Void, Casting a Shadow
Heavens/Sky: Light 'em Up, Holy Hand Grenade, Star Power, The Power of the Sun, Lunacy
Cosmic Energy: Pure Energy, Infinity +1 Element
Life Essence: Life Energy, Soul Power, Heart Beat-Down, Biomanipulation
So a five person group in which 4 people align with water, fire, earth, and air, while the fifth has powers, personalities, and motifs (elemental or cosmic) linked to one of the above also counts. Because Light Is Good and an Ideal Hero is often an All-Loving Hero, this fifth character is very likely to be the hero and The Leader if the ensemble is a formal team and the work goes with the "heart", "life", "light", etc. interpretations of Element No. 5.
Super-Trope to Alchemic Elementals and The Four Gods. Compare and contrast other elemental group tropes like Fire/Ice Duo, Fire, Water, Wind, Fire, Ice, Lightning, and Land, Sea, Sky. Frequently a case of Superhero Speciation and sometimes overlaps with Elite Four.

Even though it's not overtly visible in their powers, the main characters from Puella Magi Madoka Magica form one, with Mami representing Air, Homura representing Earth, Kyouko representing Fire, Sayaka representing Water and Madoka being Element No. 5. To wit:
Mami is a kind, flighty and dreamy person whose ribbons can float, and shape into anything. Like an astrological air personality, her battle style is calculated and confident, but also like the astrological character, her downfall was when she went Leeroy Jenkins on a target she underestimated.
Homura is a no-nonsense girl whose own outfit consists of a dull-colored variation on her school outfit and even her powers are more about practicality than anything flashy. Hell, instead of using a signature weapon she just steals bombs and grenades. She also has been stubbornly stuck in the same Ground Hog Day Loop for over twenty years, and is rendered helpless once she ends up on the ground, her leg stuck under rubble.
Kyouko's fire motifs are perhaps more overt, as she's by far the most abrasive and in-your-face of the cast. It helps that fire is also associated with indiscriminate consumption and ties into her religious motif. She ends up burning up all the magic she has to take down her target in one big, fiery explosion.
Sayaka's water motifs are also visible in her transformation. It gives her powerful healing abilities and she acts on intuition and ideals rather than logic. This comes back to bite her in the rear as she realizes that her ideals are too unrealistic for anyone to live up to, making her Genre Blind and making the Awful Truth hit even harder, turning her into a mermaid witch.
Madoka being Element No. 5 isn't apparent until the very end, where, after having witnessed all of the above events as a bystander, she realizes the truth about wishes and avoids falling into the pitfalls of the others by making a thought-out, truly selfless wish that makes her able of eradicating her own witch form (thus also erasing herself from this plane) and facing the truth as it is.

Sleepless Domain: The magical girls of Team Alchemical form a Classical Elements Ensemble, with each girl controlling one of the classical elements of Air, Earth, Fire, and Water. The team's leader Tessa Quinn has power over Aether, which manifests as Pure Energy. As such, she's the strongest of the group in terms of raw magical power, with the ability to unleash powerful blasts of energy upon her opponents, or channel energy into her allies to heal them.

This comes to bite them in the butt when they fight Jack after the Fire Elemental hits the Air Elemental, which causes the Air elemental to go out of control and spin out into a tornado that swallows them all whole.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the four Divine Beasts, each representing a classical element, and each is plagued with a Blight Ganon that makes use of that element. Vah Rudania is the fire one, Vah Ruta is the water one, and Vah Medoh is the air/wind one. Vah Naboris is primarily themed around lightning (and its boss is Thunderblight Ganon with electrical attacks), but it is also associated with earth.

Symphogear GX: The four autoscorers of the Alchemic Cult each have an associated music/dance, suit from the Turkish deck of cards, and element from the classical elements, on top of being color-coded in line with that element. Garie Tuman was the autoscorer of water, wore all blue, and could use both water and ice based abilities. Pharah Suyuf was the autoscorer of wind, wore all green, and could use wind alchemy. Leir Darahim was the autoscorer of earth, wore all yellow, and could use earth alchemy that manifested in her fighting with bars and coins of gold. Micha Jawkan was the autoscorer of fire, wore all red, and used fire alchemy.

The Bloons Tower Defense series has four of the five Boss Bloons — Bloonarius for Water, Vortex for Air, Dreadbloon for Earth, and Blastapopulos for Fire. They also have powers associated with their element. Bloonarius spawns massive tides and deluges of bloons every time it loses enough health. Vortex uses air currents to speed up Bloons and emits a radial air blast (in Bloons Monkey City) or lightning blast (in BTD 6) to stun towers around it. It can also use a storm barrier that deflects slower-moving projectiles aimed at it. Dreadbloon has lead armor properties that make it immune to many unbuffed attacks, and can also grow rock armor on itself for extra health. In BTD 6, it can also summon rock bloons to Draw Aggro from your towers. Blastapopulos throws fireballs at your towers to stun them.

Saikyou Juzoku Tensei: The Four Great Gods of Creation have this as a theme, with each one having Elemental Powers over an element. Levi is a Fish Person and Lord of the Ocean and can control water. Maharbo was a fire goddess so she naturally has fire powers. Garuuja was animalistic in form to link him to being closer to nature and representing earth. Silfheim had the form of a huge dragon, and could create tornados at will.

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: The Four Supreme Generals are based on The Four Gods and explicitly represent an element. Thymilph is the General of Fire and despite being shrewd and calculating, can easily get into a Hot-Blooded rage. Adiane, the sole female general is the General of Water; she has dark blue hair, has big mood shifts, and can summon water to help her in battle. She also has a scorpion tail, reminiscent of the Scorpio sign in the Western Zodiac, a water sign. Guame is the General of Earth, specializing in ground combat and is the most animal-like of the group, which puts him closer to nature and the natural world than the other generals. Finally, Cytomander is the General of Air, with a peacock-like appearance given all of the feathers on his body and specializing in aerial combat. Also, half of their Theme Naming comes from the Alchemic Elementals, though oddly, the embodiments Thymilph and Cytomander are named after are swapped in regards to their elements.

RWBY: In the Remnant fairy tale "The Story of the Seasons", four sisters become the Four Maidens after an old wizard is so moved by their kindness and compassion that he gifts them with his magic so that they can better help others. Spring, who is intimately connected to the earth, can create and control plants; Summer gains the gift of fire, Fall gains the gift of wind, and Winter can freeze water into ice. A subverted and invoked trope. When introduced, the real Maidens turn out to be able to use all Elemental Powers. The fairy tale was created by the real "Old Wizard" to hide their existence from the world; each season is a code-name for each Maiden, and each Maiden is responsible for protecting one of the four divine Relics.

Like the four main characters of V, the four main characters of Final Fantasy VII's party all correspond far too closely to a cardinal element for it to be coincidental, although unlike V it is never relevant to the plot or highlighted:
Cloud — Wind. Wind-related name, uses a sword (associated with Air in tarot), wind-themed attacks, compelled to wander, introspective and strategic, acts detached, and looks down on others.
Aerith — Earth. Earth-related name ("I, Earth"), gardener, grew up in an underground slum, her magic is drawn from the Planet, practical, stubborn, nurturing, sensual. Cloud and Aeris's first meeting even involves him falling down from the sky and landing in her flowerbed.
Tifa — Water. Dolphin-themed hairstyle, uses water-themed attacks (both Waterkick and Dolphin Blow are in her Limit Breaks), bartender who pours drinks for the rest of the cast, giving and kind, fluid and accommodating, likes to act as group peacemaker. Her Journey To The Center Of Cloud's Mind, where she gets him to see things her way, is caused when they both fall into (Lifestream-filled) sea. She is also associated with a Hearts motif (her surname is Lockhart, her ultimate weapon is the Premium Heart), the card suit analogous to the tarotic Cups/Water.
Barret — Fire. Fire-themed tattoo, fire-themed attacks, associated with firearms, terrorist, Hot-Blooded, hot temper, impulsive, passionate, powerful.

World of Warcraft: The four Elemental Lords — Ragnaros (fire), Al'Akir (air), Neptulon (water), and Therazane (earth). All four of them served the Old Gods in the past, but in Cataclysm, Ragnaros and Al'Akir are the enemy, while Therazane and Neptulon become hesitant allies of the protagonists. There's also the Ascendant Council in the Bastion of Twilight, with Ignacious (fire), Feludius (water), Terrastra (earth), and Arion(air), all of whom are Twilight Hammer members who have turned into elementals.

Sylphy represents air, her name deriving from Sylphs, a kind of air spirit. Kobory represents earth, her name coming from Kobolds who are typically depicted as earth spirits. Salama represents fire, her name coming from Salamander, which are associated with fire. They also have their respective Elemental Powers.

In Hoshin Engi, the Four Saints of Kuryuujima have elemental paope invoking the four classical elements: Kongenjuu (Coalescence Bead) summon and manipulate seawater, Hekichijuu (Earth-splitting Bead) can move and shape massive amounts of dirt, Bankojuu (Yellow Strikes Bead) allows the user to fly freely in the air, dodge any incoming attack and shoot light beams, while the Kaitenjuu (Heaven-opening Bead) can cause fiery explosions.

W.I.T.C.H.: Each main girl represents one of the classical elements and has Elemental Personalities to match. Irma is water and has Making a Splash powers. Taranee is fire and has Playing with Fire powers. Hay Lin is air and has Blow You Away powers. Cornelia is earth with Green Thumb powers. And Will is Element No. 5, with powers related to Pure Energy and Light 'em Up. She's also The Leader and The Heart of the group, literally as she's the only one who has possession of the Heart of Kandrakar and leads them, balancing between their different personalities as she gains more confidence.

Marvel Universe:
Fantastic Four: The Four's powers, while not all are Elemental Powers, they are still evocative of the elements. Reed is Water. Like liquid, he is able to change his shape and fit through obstacles that solid objects can't. Ben is Earth. In addition to being super-strong and resilient like rock, his appearance is similar to that of a golem. Johnny is Fire. He has the power to self-ignite and can use his fire to fight. Sue is Air. She has the power to become invisible and can make the air exert force, like the wind. John Byrne's very first Fantastic Four story as writer and artist has Diablo create elemental beings with earth, air, fire, and water powers, and sent each of them to attack Sue, Johnny, Reed, and Ben respectively. Once the team traded partners to fight the opponents who more closely matched their powers, the elementals were easily outmatched.
The supervillain team Force of Nature consists of Firewall, Aqueduct, Terraformer, and Skybreaker, who correspond to fire, water, earth, and air.

Avatar: The Last Airbender:
In its final iteration, Team Avatar is a Five-Man Band of Aang (an Air Nomad, though as the Avatar he is associated with all elements), Katara (a waterbending master), Toph (an earthbending prodigy who also discovered metalbending), Zuko (the prince of the Fire Nation), and Sokka a Non-Elemental, something that Sokka himself lampshades.
In The Legend of Korra the party tends to shift over time, but the core group is Korra (water), Mako (fire), Bolin (Earth), Tenzin and his family (air), and Asami (technology/Badass Normal). The Red Lotus in Book 3 is a villainous counterpart.
Asami can also be seen as representing Air, since after the return of airbending at the start of the third season, her airship serves as the home for the new airbenders, as well as for Team Avatar.
The Red Lotus faction led by Zaheer in The Legend of Korra also qualifies as each member has one elemental power, though Zaheer was a non-bender prior to Harmonic Convergence. Zaheer is an airbender, Ghazan is an earth bender, Ming Hua is a water bender, and P'Li is a firebender.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): How each of the "Big Four" kaiju who originally debuted in Toho's Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster are represented in their MonsterVerse iteration, as confirmed by Word of God. Godzilla represents water as a giant, semi-aquatic marine reptile and the only sea-dwelling Titan of the four (which is actually a plot point when it enables him to slip away undetected after he's critically injured by the Oxygen Destroyer, and when his underwater lair is later revealed). Mothra represents earth, being the most fertile and protective Titan of the four whose egg is found deep in a rainforest, and who life literally flocks to. Ghidorah represents air, because not only is he a Giant Flyer like Mothra and Rodan, but unlike the other two, he causes massive storms including tornadoes and a Category 6 hurricane. Rodan represents fire, being a bio-volcanic Magma Man (unlike his previous portrayals), and he emerges from an active volcano.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: According to an artbook by mecha designer Kunio Okawara, the five Gundams each had Elemental Motifs chosen during the design process. The quick and stealthy Deathscythe represents air, the walking arsenal Heavyarms represents fire, the desert-themed and heavily armored Sandrock represents earth, and the martial arts-themed Shenlong represents water. The book doesn't list an elemental association for Wing, but since it's the Jack of All Stats among the five, it aligns with Element No. 5.

Kilocorn Grandeps has a high block rate against physical attacks and an extremely high defense stat (earth), Perilwing Ryuho has high dexterity and agiility (wind), Dreadwyrm Nizoont is a fire-breathing dragon (fire), and Levialord Empireo is a Sea Serpent (water). Seraphic Ceratinia is the strongest of the bunch and stands in for Element No. 5 due to its association with light, shown by its white and rainbow-colored plummage and name related to the seraph angels.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance: The Winds of Destruction, despite the collective group being named after wind, do fit this trope:
Jetsream Sam is associated with wind. He has two wind-themed names, Minuano and Jetstream, more than any of the other Winds of Destruction, and his theme song describes high-altitude winds in particular. As a playable character, his in-game light and heavy attacks are named "Piercing Winds" and "Stiff Breeze". His personality is the most carefree and adventurous out of the Winds, and his rivalry with Raiden echoes a Shinto rivalry between lightning and wind gods. Sam dies after a duel in the Colorado badlands accompanied by tumbleweeds blowing through the area, and a red and gold sunset which got its color from high-altitude clouds and atmospheric dust.
Sundowner is associated with fire. His name refers to a wind known for causing forest fires, and Kevin refers to him as "the Californian wildfire" in a cutscene. Beyond that, his personality is the most passionate and hot-blooded out of the Winds, he causes and feeds off of chaotic destruction like a fire does, his theme song describes a wildfire, and Raiden kills him by using an explosion to propel him into a Blade Mode frenzy.
Mistral is associated with water. She's named after a wind that heads into the Mediterranean, her theme song describes adrift at sea, her fighting style is the most graceful and fluid out of the Winds, and she's killed when Raiden freezes her in liquid nitrogen and shatters her.
Monsoon is associated with earth. His namesake winds are known for producing both mudslides and dust storms, his speech to Raiden can be described as "grounding" in multiple senses of the word, his battle song describes sinking into the mud, one of his battle quotes is "back to the earth with you!", and his magnetism powers let him control metal ore. Finally, Raiden kills Monsoon by pressing him into the World Marshal logo, an image of the earth, before viciously cutting him while he's immobilized.

Xenogears:
The Elements are Kahran Ramsus's Elite Four divided according to the four classical elements, and have corresponding personalities to match. Dominia, The Leader, represents Earth and is a physical fighter that focuses on strength with a rough-around-the-edges personality. Kelvena represents Water and is typically quiet and calm; she pilots Gear Marinebasher, which is dolphin shaped. Seraphitia represents Fire and uses Fire-elemental Ether; she pilots Grandgowl, which looks like a giant winged lion. Tolone represents Wind and is the smartest and most logical of the group, being a cyborg; she pilots Skyghene which is shaped like a bird.
The grouping described above is just the current iteration of The Elements. Before the events of the game, The members of The Elements were Kahran Ramsus himself standing in for Wind, Citan Uzuki representing Water, Jessie Black representing Earth, and Sigurd Harcourt representing Fire. Subverted however as this group lacks many of the motifs typical of the elements.

The Craft:
According to the script, the four girls all have an Elemental Motifs associated with one of the classical elements that hold a prominent place in Wiccan tradition. Sarah represents Earth - as the most grounded and mature of the girls. Bonnie represents Fire - and she was once burned by one. Rochelle represents Water - she's an avid swimmer. Nancy represents Air - she is wild and unpredictable.
When they cast a spell, each one invokes their element, in their incantation. Rochelle: "Hail to the guardians of the watch towers of the West, powers of water and intuition." Nancy: "Hail to the guardians of the watch towers of the East, powers of air and invention." Bonnie: "Hail to the guardians of the watch towers of the South, powers of Fire and feeling."

Tsukipro is an idol group based around this theming—SolidS is Fire, Quell is Water, SOARA is Air, Growth is Earth. The units' music reflects their elements—SolidS is heated, sexy, and always changing; Quell is calm and soothing yet also dark and deep; SOARA is light and youthful; Growth is the one that subverts expectations — their interpretation of "earth" is that they're world-traveling (or multiverse-traveling) princely flowers, and their music is fantasy-tinged Baroque Pop.

Final Fantasy:
The series frequently has four elemental crystals—Fire, Water, Air and Earth—and often there's the Four Fiends to go with them: Scarmiglione is associated with Earth because of his link to the undead (those buried in the ground), though notably he doesn't have any Dishing Out Dirt attacks. Cagnazzo is a turtle-like creature associated with Water who uses Making a Splash attacks, Barbariccia is associated with Wind and has Blow You Away abilities, like a signature ability to create a wind barrier, and Rubicante is associated with Fire and uses Playing with Fire attacks. Both pop up in Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy IV, and Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. Final Fantasy IX brought the Four Fiends back but not the crystals, and Final Fantasy III has the crystals but not the Fiends.
Near the beginning of Final Fantasy V, each of the four protagonists is associated with one of the four elemental crystals along with a personality trait associated with said element. Bartz gets wind and quest, Lenna gets water and kindness, Galuf gets earth and hope, and Faris gets fire and courage.
Like the four main characters of V, the four main characters of Final Fantasy VII's party all correspond far too closely to a cardinal element for it to be coincidental, although unlike V it is never relevant to the plot or highlighted:
Cloud — Wind. Wind-related name, uses a sword (associated with Air in tarot), wind-themed attacks, compelled to wander, introspective and strategic, acts detached, and looks down on others.
Aerith — Earth. Earth-related name ("I, Earth"), gardener, grew up in an underground slum, her magic is drawn from the Planet, practical, stubborn, nurturing, sensual. Cloud and Aeris's first meeting even involves him falling down from the sky and landing in her flowerbed.
Tifa — Water. Dolphin-themed hairstyle, uses water-themed attacks (both Waterkick and Dolphin Blow are in her Limit Breaks), bartender who pours drinks for the rest of the cast, giving and kind, fluid and accommodating, likes to act as group peacemaker. Her Journey To The Center Of Cloud's Mind, where she gets him to see things her way, is caused when they both fall into (Lifestream-filled) sea. She is also associated with a Hearts motif (her surname is Lockhart, her ultimate weapon is the Premium Heart), the card suit analogous to the tarotic Cups/Water.
Barret — Fire. Fire-themed tattoo, fire-themed attacks, associated with firearms, terrorist, Hot-Blooded, hot temper, impulsive, passionate, powerful.
The Crystal Chronicles subseries designed the four playable races this way. The clavats' down-to-earth nature, earth-toned hair and eye colors, and their reputation for farming represent Earth. Lilties, with their reputation as hotheads, propensity for blacksmithing, and their hairstyles that variously resemble flames, represent Fire.

Lo-Lo controls the wind and can also shoot lightning.

Retired Witches Mysteries: Covens are traditionally made up of witches who represent any combination of the four classical elements, usually three out of four (though having all four together makes spells more powerful), drawing strength from the presence of their respective elements. Molly is water, Olivia and Brian are air and Elsie is fire, while Dorothy is earth when they discover her.

In Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, Ben ends up obtaining five new forms from aliens from the Andromedia galaxy. Four of them have these powers: Water Hazard (water), Terraspin (wind), NRG (fire), and Armadrillo (earth), while the fifth one, Ampfibian, has lighting, though this one is a case of Lightning Can Do Anything.

My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!: The four capture targets of Fortune Lover each represent one of the four classical elements and have Elemental Powers associated with them. Geordo can cast fire magic. Alan can use water magic. Keith has potent Earth magic and can build golems even from a young age. And Nicol uses wind magic. Maria, the original main character, has access to Light magic, making her representative of the rare Element No. 5 and turning her and the four capture targets into an ensemble. However, the reveal that Sirius/Raphael, who uses dark magic, is the secret fifth suitor turns the suitors as into a Five-Man Band and a second classical elements ensemble, with him standing in for void or space.

Warhammer: The Chaos gods.
Khorne — the raging fire. To extrapolate, red is his color, his forges are powered by his rage, and his spiky armoured silhouette and the silhouettes of his demons also look like a men on fire.
Nurgle — the hungry earth. The god of rot, decay, acceptance, and humility (the most "down to earth" god). His mansion is located in a garden, and his colors are generally brown and green.
Tzeentch — the uncatchable air. His color is blue, "The winds of change" is a saying used in Warhammer Fantasy rather often, he's constantly in motion/change just like air, he has flying chariot demons, and his greater demons are birds.
Slaanesh — the beguiling water. The Eldar refer to her as "She who THIRSTS", her demon steeds are tamed by giving them a drink (of the milk of loyalty), fond of reflective surfaces (Slaanesh's palace is filled with them), and many of Slaanesh's demons are crab-themed.

The Crystal Chronicles subseries designed the four playable races this way. The clavats' down-to-earth nature, earth-toned hair and eye colors, and their reputation for farming represent Earth. Lilties, with their reputation as hotheads, propensity for blacksmithing, and their hairstyles that variously resemble flames, represent Fire. Yukes, with their wings and their reputation for being spacy, represent Air. Selkies, with their hair and eyes coming in various shades of blue and teal, having their only independent settlement being on an island, and being named after a type of mythological water being, represent Water.

In Accel World, the Elements, the four elite members of Nega Nebulus, are this, since each one has one of the four elements. Sky Raker, who was the duel avatar closest to achieving flight before Silver Crow, represents air. Ardor Maiden, a powerful long-range type who conjures up a lance of fire to attack and uses flames to purify, represents fire. Aqua Current, as the name implies, uses the water around her body to create an armor she can shift into different battle forms, represents water. Graphite Edge represents earth, specifically carbon in its various forms as he was able to control carbon and form swords with the hardness of diamond to fight with. Kuroyukihime had planned for the four of them to take on The Four Gods guarding the Imperial Palace in the Unlimited Neural Field, with each member challenging the Enemy with the same element, so that they would have some protection from that foe's ability (e.g. Maiden had to fight Suzaku).

In League of Legends, the main map has a set of dragons that periodically appear and can be fought as set of neutral objectives. Introduced in 2016, dragons were directly based on this scheme, each one providing different buffs (including an extreme "Dragon Soul" gained from slaying four dragons) and different terrain-altering effects: the Infernal Drake increases damage and scorches apart terrain, the Mountain Drake increases defense and creates terrain, the Cloud Drake increases speed and creates large fields to speed up navigation, and the Ocean Drake increases regenerative stats and forms additional brush and honeyfruits. 2022 saw the addition of two new Magitek-themed dragons that broke from the formula: the Hextech Drake (which attacks with lightning) and the Chemtech Drake (which attacks with poisonous gas).

Happy Heroes: The Stones: The movie has a series of posters that symbolically correlate the Supermen and their Car Knights to one of the five classical Chinese elements, regardless of actual abilities. Happy S.'s hot-bloodedness is represented by his helmet wings emitting flames. Sweet S. is enveloped in a circular gust of wind: as The Heart of the group, she represents Pacifist Wind. Smart S. is covered in vines and there are flowers growing on his Car Knight, representing wood. This might be a pun on his Chinese name, which is "Flowering Heart Superman". Careless S.'s motif is electricity, but going by the Chinese elemental theming it's likely meant to be metal to some extent which conducts electricity, given that he invents weapons. Careful S. is submerged in water, signifying his calmness.

Mimete uses sonicwaves to attack linking her to air. Tellu is Earth, with her green hair, eyes, and transformation outfit; she uses plants and vines to extract hearts and attacks. Viluy is Water: she has icy blue hair, eyes, and uniform when she transforms and uses a weapon that dissolves her enemies. Finally Cyprine, with her Space Master ability to teleport people into a pocket dimension, stands in for space.

Quest for Glory: Used throughout the series, especially in the second game, where Shapeir is threatened by four Elementals representing the four elements. Four of the five games in the series (discounting III, which was made at the last minute and thus is the Odd Name Out) also represent the four elements, with I representing earth, II fire, IV air, and V water. There is a fifth "pizza" element, used mostly as a joke, though the AGD Fan Remake of II includes a Pizza Elemental as an Optional Boss.

Fantastic Four: The Four's powers, while not all are Elemental Powers, they are still evocative of the elements. Reed is Water. Like liquid, he is able to change his shape and fit through obstacles that solid objects can't. Ben is Earth. In addition to being super-strong and resilient like rock, his appearance is similar to that of a golem. Johnny is Fire. He has the power to self-ignite and can use his fire to fight. Sue is Air. She has the power to become invisible and can make the air exert force, like the wind. John Byrne's very first Fantastic Four story as writer and artist has Diablo create elemental beings with earth, air, fire, and water powers, and sent each of them to attack Sue, Johnny, Reed, and Ben respectively. Once the team traded partners to fight the opponents who more closely matched their powers, the elementals were easily outmatched.

Sailor Moon:
In addition to the Cosmic Motifs, the series gives the original lineup of Sailor Senshi power over a different element. Sailor Mars is Fire and has fire-based abilities. Sailor Mercury takes Water, which manifests in bubble based attacks. Though predominantly using lightning-based attacks, Sailor Jupiter also has a Flower Motif with attacks based on roses, vines, and thorns which is associated with nature and earth. Sailor Moon is the most subtle since her attacks are almost all associated with the moon, light, and rainbows, however Usagi herself is a ditzy airhead, which associates her with air. After Sailor Venus joins the crew and turns the group into a Five-Man Band, she fulfills the role of Element No. 5 due to her Light 'em Up and Heart Beat-Down abilities.
The Witches 5 from the first anime's S season also follow this theme. Eudial is Fire, with her red outfit, hair, and eyes, and she fights with a flamethrower.

Blackout: Played with, except the team is actually a single person (the Player Character) with a Split Personality disorder, each of the four personalities associated with an element. Depending on which actions the player makes him do, he will tend to identify with one over the three others.
The air personality is a carefree and easygoing Gadfly, who is constantly rather chipper.
The fire personality is characterised by his extremely cynical world-view, and his voice is fully of ice-cold fury. He also has a latent sadistic streak and is obsessed with getting revenge on those he feels have wronged him, as well as casually inflicting cruelty upon others just for the hell of it.
The earth personality is quiet, distant, shy, and modest, and believes he is not very interesting. He does, however, have some clear hints of being Obsessively Normal, especially in how he tries to downplay the severity of the Player Character's Dark and Troubled Past.
The water personality is childish, skittish, and fearful, and is plagued by feelings of abandonment and loneliness.
