COMMENTS
Also positive integers y in the solutions to 8*x^2-5*y^2+4*x+3*y+2 = 0, the corresponding values of x being A252985.
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+1442*a(n-2)-1442*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).
G.f.: -x*(x^4+85*x^3-1251*x^2+731*x+2) / ((x-1)*(x^2-38*x+1)*(x^2+38*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
2 is in the sequence because H(2) = 7 = 1+6 = X(1)+X(2).
PROG
(PARI) Vec(-x*(x^4+85*x^3-1251*x^2+731*x+2)/((x-1)*(x^2-38*x+1)*(x^2+38*x+1)) + O(x^100))
