to transmit electric power long distance, high voltage is used, the generator produces power at 1000 V and it needs to be transported at 2,000,000 V. would a ste-up or step-down transformer be needed?

Vs/Vp = Ns/Np
you are talking about a step down transformer here.
obviously secondary will have fewer turns.
