FORMULA
a(n) = F(n)^2*L(n)^3 if n is even, 5*F(n)^4*L(n) if n is odd, where F(n) is the n-th Fibonacci number A000045(n), and L(n) is the n-th Lucas number A000032(n).
Conjectures from Colin Barker, May 19 2020: (Start)
G.f.: x*(1 + x^2)*(1 + 5*x + 74*x^2 - 5*x^3 + x^4) / ((1 + 4*x - x^2)*(1 + x - x^2)*(1 - 4*x - x^2)*(1 - 11*x - x^2)).
a(n) = 10*a(n-1) + 31*a(n-2) - 190*a(n-3) - 236*a(n-4) + 190*a(n-5) + 31*a(n-6)- 10*a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n>8.

(PARI) F(n) = fibonacci(n);
L(n) = F(n+1)+F(n-1);
a(n) = if (n%2, F(n)^2*L(n)^3, 5*F(n)^4*L(n));
