Read again ;) (under "help every")

      plot 'file' every {<point_incr>}
                          {:{<block_incr>}
                            {:{<start_point>}
                              {:{<start_block>}
                                {:{<end_point>}
                                  {:<end_block>}}}}}

Your default start_point is zero. You just set it to "1":

    plot dataf every 2::1

Alternative (plot even data, not even point/line numbers)

    plot dataf us ($1 % 2 == 0 ? $1 : NaN):2
