I bought a used Diamante 2001 and it came with 26-5S battery and battery is getting completely discharged if not used for two weeks.
Now Walmart recommended that this car must use 86-S battery.
Is there any problem with electrical circuit or alternator or size of the battery

Sounds like a short eating up the battery or something is still on that's drawing current -battery drain test below.
