Three variable, second degree diophantine equation I am trying to solve this diophantine equation:
    $x^2 + yx + y^2 = z^2$
In other words, I am trying to find integers $x$ and $y$ such that $x^2 + yx + y^2$ is a perfect square.
So far, the only methods to solve quadratic diophantine equations I am familiar with are Pythagorean triples and Pell equations. The $yx$ term has a coefficient of one, so I can't complete the square to reduce it to a Pell equation somehow, and I am wondering if there are other methods to solve this kind of equation.
Some insight would be highly appreciated.

Generally speaking, this equation has a lot of formulas for the solution. Because it is symmetrical.
Write the formula can someone come in handy. the equation:
$Y^2+aXY+X^2=Z^2$
Has a solution:
$X=as^2-2ps$
$Y=p^2-s^2$
$Z=p^2-aps+s^2$
more:
$X=(4a+3a^2)s^2-2(2+a)ps-p^2$
$Y=(a^3-8a-8)s^2+2(a^2-2)ps+ap^2$
$Z=(2a^3+a^2-8a-8)s^2+2(a^2-2)ps-p^2$
more:
$X=(a+4)p^2-2ps$
$Y=3p^2-4ps+s^2$
$Z=(2a+5)p^2-(a+4)ps+s^2$
more:
$X=8s^2-4ps$
$Y=p^2-(4-2a)ps+a(a-4)s^2$
$Z=-p^2+4ps+(a^2-8)s^2$
For the particular case: $Y^2+XY+X^2=Z^2$  You can draw more formulas.
$X=3s^2+2ps$
$Y=p^2+2ps$
$Z=p^2+3ps+3s^2$
more:
$X=3s^2+2ps-p^2$
$Y=p^2+2ps-3s^2$
$Z=p^2+3s^2$
In the equation:  $X^2+aXY+bY^2=Z^2$ there is always a solution and one of them is quite simple.
$X=s^2-bp^2$
$Y=ap^2+2ps$
$Z=bp^2+aps+s^2$
$p,s$ - integers asked us.
