COMMENTS
This sequence is infinite since 4p^2 = 0^2 + 0^2 + (2p)^2 is in the sequence for all primes p.
A069262 is a subsequence.
It appears at first that the squares of A139544(n) for n >= 3 are a subsequence. n=22 is the first counterexample, where A139544(22)^2 = 6084 is not an element of this sequence.

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 16 = 2^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 = 0^2 + 0^2 + 4^2.
