what pet would make the most sense to use the stone one?

Awq said exactly what I was thinking. Although, I don't think
everyone should save their stones, because once you gather enough knowledge about pet battles, leveling up becomes the easiest part of the process, and having an insta 25 at any moment could be real handy, especially when you start looking at different breeds.
If you really want to use it though, I would say you should use on something resilient, useful for other things other than just wild battles, and also who needs little help from the rest of your pets to kill whatever team you are fighting against. The options I can think of from the top of my head would be:
Feline Familiar (?,1,1)
Anubisath Idol (1,2,2)
Emerald Proto-Whelp P/P (2,2,2)
Emperor Crab P/P (1,1,1)(to a lesser extent)
Any of those 4 is capable of killing infinite amounts of wild pets at max lvl, without the assistance of healing/bandages, and they will help you significantly to increase the number of pets lvl 25 at your disposal.
Variety is more important than having one strong pet or a team of strong pets for anyone who is just starting. When I say strong pets I am referring to pets like: lil'ragnaros, zandalari raptors, lil'bling, and so on. You would be surprised by how much more useful a rare spider from krasarang, or a rabbit from kun lai can be when compared to a shinier and prettier thing, such as celestial dragon, unborn val'kyr, or stormwing.
Also, remember that you can buy Feline Familiar and Anubisath Idol at lvl 25 from the auction house, once you got yourself at least one pet at max lvl. Emerald Proto-Whelps can be captured at lvl 21 already(19 after the 2 lvl drop), and so can Emperor Crabs at lvl 24~25 (22~23 after capturing).
