Is God the epitome of both good and evil?

I believe this is our stoner troll. Scoff at it all you like - but it sure would 'splain some things!

Who created evil then if God is only good?

Who is the Yin to God/Yang, so to speak?

Who is God's co-creator.

You err because you misunderstand the nature of evil. Just as dark is the absence of light, so evil is the absence of moral goodness. Because God is absolutely good, He cannot sin (i.e. commit an evil act).

Evil results from the morally flawed choices of free creatures.

Yet in Job 3;2 God says that Satan moved him to destroy without cause.

He admits to being evil and sinning.

Strange that you do not see God torturing King David's baby for 6 days before finally killing it as somehow good.

Nice morals and discernment your religion has given you. Not.
