Basic Trope: A town is painted in a single color.
- Straight: Watertown is entirely blue.
- Exaggerated: Even the trees are painted blue in Watertown, and all the people have blue hair.
- Downplayed:
- Only the buildings are blue, and they are many different shades of blue.
- Watertown has a water-inspired color palette, but is many colors.
- Justified:
- It's a town full of Water-types and to differentiate themselves from Firetown, Airtown, and Earthtown they paint everything blue.
- Most of the town's historic buildings come from a time where non-blue paints were too expensive to import and they are keeping them in their original color(s).
- Inverted: The countryside is entirely blue.
- Subverted: As Alice and Bob walk through the blue streets of Watertown, they see that the City Hall is a large prominent white building.
- Double Subverted:
- City Hall is later repainted blue.
- But the insides of City Hall are all blue.
- Parodied: Upon entering Watertown, Alice and Bob have blue paint dumped on them, so they too can be blue.
- Zig Zagged: Watertown is all blue, but Earthtown has no predominant color.
- Averted: Watertown is every color.
- Enforced: "Watertown is almost exactly the same as Airtown, so let's make Watertown blue."
- Lampshaded: A sign outside of Watertown reads "Welcome to Watertown, America's Bluest Town."
- Invoked: The Water-Types intentionally build the town to be blue to celebrate their powers.
- Exploited:
- It's easy to tell who or what doesn't belong in Watertown if it's not colored blue.
- Primarily blue Water-Types escape into the town to camouflage and evade anyone chasing after them.
- Defied: When the town was founded, the original Water-types made everything blue, but successive generations varied the color palette to the point where the town is no longer predominantly blue.
- Discussed: "If Watertown's this blue, I have to wonder what colors the other towns are."
- Conversed: "I'm sure the colorists had a lot of fun working with Watertown."
