Just so you know there is a separate section for Pokemon Go discussion. Remember that the point of Pokemon Go is to get out in different areas in order to catch them. If you're only looking around where you live, work, or go to school, you're only going to get a few.

Moved to the GO forum. Remember to use the report button next time if you spot something in the wrong area!
I'm not sure if we have many people here who would give accounts away so easily since most play using just one file (their main/only account). Trading's not in the game yet either so that's not an option.
How far have you been going though? Staying in the same small vicinity will result in a lot less Pokémon of course, depending on where you're going you might have an abundance of the same common Pokémon and less rare ones. It took me a little bit to find more than the usual Pidgey, Rattata, Zubat, Spearow, and etc. You should catch everything you can find as a low-leveled player to level up and open more catching opportunities.

Try to play in more urban areas. Finding only two pokemon sounds impossible, so I'm guessing you live in a really rural place.

It's Pokémon GO. You have to go and travel to as many different locations as possible.
I live in the suburbs where it's 99% Rattata, Weedle, Pidgey, Spearow with an extremely occasional Eevee. I can't access ANY PokéStops OR Gyms (and there are only three Stops and three Gyms within a 4-mile radius) unless I get in my car and go out of my way to drive out. Meanwhile I've traveled well over 240 miles (400+ km) with the majority of that on my own two feet and I've completed the North American PokéDex two weeks ago.
You HAVE to go outside and explore. It's literally the central design point of the entire game. Take a trip somewhere. Drive down to the town square. Get a bunch of friends together and spend a weekend around hotspots.
And I don't get the logic of getting "donated" Pokémon or even an account with prepopulated captures. What's the point of that?

What's point being helped? The idea of game is get the Pokemon yourself and go different places. Think I'm lucky as I live on coast so only about half hour walk away from beach where there is always loads of different Pokemon along with gyms and pokestops. Apart from there tho I get mainly same Pokemon pidgy, ratatta, weedle. Even the bit of beach nearest me has few or same Pokemon.
