You can't find Squirtle. You can choose it at the beginning of the game where Professer Oak allows you to choose a Pokemon. Although, be careful when choosing Squirtle. Your rival will get Bulbasaur and it can be a pain to beat. I suggest starting with Charmander, then catching a Pikachu. It is an excellent team.
ALTHOUGH
if you want all three starters...do this:
Start with a Pokemon of your choice. Catch any 2 Pokemon you can ASAP. Then with a good friend, trade over one of their starters with something that you caught. Make your friend do that again, then repeat. You will then have yourself a Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur!
Good luck and have fun!
Actually you can find squirtel around route 1 in the begining is where i first seen him. I also captured a bulbasaur after i chose charmander for my starter.

You get Squirtle as one of the starter pokemon.
Trade them from firered or leafgreen.
You can only get Squirtle in LGFR.
Yes, you can get a Squirtle in Pokemon Sapphire. However, it cannot be caught in the game. It must be traded from FireRed or LeafGreen (or Emerald) and will even register on your Pokedex after you defeat the Pokemon League. Keep in mind that Pokemon like Blastoise or Wartortle can breed to produce a Squirtle.
