Energy bending is not only a avatar thing as the lion tutle was capable of energy bending and he is obviously not a energy bender. However we do not know whether you have to be some form of a bender to do it. Below OscarWikia states that only a Avatar may meet the turtle however not to undercut his statement it never says this only that "Aang was not the first Avatar to meet one of these legendary beasts, but he was the first in many ages." which does not outright state that only avatars have met him but only that it has been a long time since he has shown himself to a avatar.
