Comments

The sequence is defined inductively as:

(a) it contains 0 and 2,

and

(b) for any nonzero term a(n), (2*a(n)) + 1 and 4*a(n) are also included as terms.

Because the inductive definition guarantees that all terms after 0 are of the form 3k+2 (A016789), and because for any n >= 0, n^2 == 0 or 1 (mod 3), (i.e., squares are in A032766), it follows that there are no squares in this sequence after the initial 0.
