Now that you mention it they are similar to the Super Sonic Special Search And Smash Squad or whatever they are called. You got the slightly competent yet still comical character Jessie who is like Scratch. You got the dumber one of the group James who is like Grounder. Lastly Meowth is like Coconuts being the smallest and lesser member who's the one that's prone to being the butt of jokes of the group.
